Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Andres, Kristina (illustrator). Every night we say the same old good night, Fox complained. Rabbit had a think. What if we say it with different words for 'good' and 'night'? Fox agreed to try, and he thought of something at once: I wish you a happy new darkness! And I wish you a merry dusk! said Rabbit straight back. Soft shadows, Rabbit! Magnificent moonlight, Fox! Fox and Rabbit live quite far away, in a bright little house beyond the mole hills. If they can't sleep, they count the good nights (335 in total). When they wish each other a good night, the rustling pear tree, the raspberries and the stars join in. Sometimes they swing on the lightshades. These heart-warming stories of friendship, fun and life in the country have everything it takes to become family favourites. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
