Pet-ty Book Review no. 7

Goodnight Moon, by Margaret Wise Brown, illustrated by Clement Hurd

reviewed by: Sweetie

“Human bought me this special edition of one of my favorite books. It even comes with a lovely art print! … Sometimes I suspect Human loves books and art almost as much as she loves me. ”

Credit: Clement Hurd (USA, 1908-1988). Illustrations for "Catfish" (New York: Viking, 1970) written by Edith Thacher Hurd (USA, 1910-1997). This is a story about a little cat named Catfish that likes to go fast and get into trouble and apparently faces no consequences in the short term. This ethos in tech bros is one of the plagues of our era, but in kittens I can lend my approval.

Chapter Thirty-Nine: Cassandra

Bruce sat on the phone, letting it ring until a woman answered. “How did you get this number?” the woman asked. 

“Sandra?” Bruce questioned in reply. “It’s Bruce.” 

“Sandra died with Carolyn. I’m Shiva now,” she answered. 

“Carolyn’s dead? I—. I think we have her daughter,” Bruce replied. Silence followed. “Not her daughter?” 

“I gave birth to her. Why would you think she belonged to one of us?” Shiva questioned. 

Bruce sighed. “Because of how she fights… And she smiles like Carolyn. You don’t want to see her?” Bruce asked.

“No. Where is her father?” Shiva questioned. 

Bruce lay back on his bed. “I don’t know. My mother found her by herself in Dakota City… What’s her name?” Bruce asked.

“If David Cain didn’t name her, she has no name. I haven’t seen her since she was born nine years ago, but if you have her, you should know he’ll come for her,” Shiva warned him. 

Bruce opened his mouth, but his breath caught as he looked up and saw the nameless girl playing with one of his anatomy models by pulling out the organs. “David? When did—? David Cain?” Bruce stammered. Bruce knew him well. He spent a summer training under David, but he was told not to return because he lacked the spark David was searching for. No killer instinct . “Are you sure?” 

“Yes. I’m sure,” Shiva answered sharply. “I hope you’re ready for the trouble that comes with her. If you choose to keep his weapon, know that he’ll be coming for her.”

“Is my family in danger?” Bruce asked. 

“It depends on how badly he wants his daughter back. Goodbye, Bruce… And do not ask me about her again,” Shiva replied before hanging up. 

Martha knocked and stood in the doorway. “Were you right?” Martha asked.

“It’s complicated. For now, keep her inside, and we’ll call her Cassandra,” Bruce replied.

“Her mother—?”

“No. She never had a name. Now she does,” Bruce interrupted. 

Martha softened. “How’d you come up with that?” Martha questioned.

“Her aunt Carolyn passed and Sandra used to be her mother,” Bruce explained. Cassandra ran up to Martha and took her hand. 

“That’s such a thoughtful name,” Martha whispered.

Thomas sat at his desk around two in the morning when he looked up and noticed Cassandra staring at him from the corner of the room. He took off his glasses and picked her up. “Why aren’t you in bed, sweetpea?” Thomas asked. She wrapped her arms around his neck. “It’s strange sleeping in a new place, but I promise you that everything will be alright.” 

He carried her upstairs to the first bedroom on his right, and he pulled the blankets back. Cassandra pressed her cheek to his. “Okay, time to go—. Right. Language.” Thomas bent forward to put her down, and she wouldn’t let go. Thomas surrendered and sat on the bed, reclining. He kicked off his slippers and got comfortable. He grabbed a book from the nightstand, patted her back to get her attention, and she lay beside him, looking at the pictures. “No harm in a bedtime story.” 

Thomas moved her hair out of her face and took her hand, tracking the words with her finger. “ Goodnight Moon , by Margaret Wise Brown. Pictures by Clement Hurd,” Thomas read aloud before turning the page. “In the great green room…” He stopped for a moment and looked at Cassandra, and she was staring up at him. She pointed to the book, and he nodded. “There was a telephone…” Thomas made a ringing noise like a house phone, and he held his fingers up to his ear like a phone. “Hm… It’s for you.” Thomas held the pretend phone up to her ear, and she took his hand and put it back on the book. Thomas chuckled as he continued to read. 

When he read the last line, he closed the book and looked at her. She furrowed her brows and put his finger back on the book. “It’s over, Cassandra. All done,” Thomas replied as he yawned. “You have—.” She opened the book and pointed to the words. “One more time, and you have to go to sleep.” Thomas pantomimed sleep before starting to read all over again. By the middle of his fourth read, he looked down, and she lay with her eyes closed and her fist tightly shut around Thomas��� shirt.

Dick sat at the foot of Bruce’s bed while doing his homework. “Bruce? Did I spell this right?” Dick questioned. Bruce looked up and reached for Dick’s notebook. 

“Did you pick French because Dad and I are fluent?” Bruce questioned. 

“I thought it’d be fun… Lied to myself, though,” Dick replied, “What’s up with the new girl and Dad? She’s been following him around ever since she got here.”

Bruce pulled a photo album out of his bedside drawer. “This is a photo album from my time traveling.” Bruce flipped the pages as Dick crawled to the head of the bed to sit beside him. Bruce pointed to a picture of himself with Carolyn at a little table, and they were laughing. 

“Is she your—?” 

“No. I was fifteen when this picture was taken. I don’t know how old Carolyn and Sandra were, but they weren’t kids. Carolyn is the one who died. She wasn’t as good a fighter as Sandra, but she was still leagues ahead of most people. Her twin is Cassandra’s mom,” Bruce explained. 

“And you know that, how?” Dick questioned. 

“I talked to her. And depending on how badly her father wants her back—. I’ll just say keeping her won’t come without its problems,” Bruce confessed. 

Dick hugged himself. “Her dad wants her? What’s the problem there?” Dick questioned.

“He might favor Dad in a few ways, but he lacks all the paternal instinct and tenderness that Dad has. She can’t return to him. It’s not fair—.”

“Who’s to say she isn’t dangerous?” Dick asked. 

“I say she isn’t,” Bruce replied. 

“Why are you protecting her?” Dick questioned, sparking a bit of rage in Bruce. 

“Why aren't you? She’s a child in a dangerous situation just like you were,” Bruce sharply answered, “I don’t regret being your older brother for a minute. Now it’s time for you to be an older brother because you don’t have a choice.” 

Alfred walked past their open door. “Alfred? What are you doing up?” Bruce asked. 

“Looking for Thomas,” Alfred replied.

“I think he’s in his office,” Dick suggested.

“I checked his office,” Alfred answered, “I think I know where he might be. Goodnight, Master Bruce. Goodnight, Master Dick.”

“Goodnight, Alfred,” Dick and Bruce answered at the same time.

After a month passed, Bruce stopped by Harvey’s apartment and greeted Gilda. “Hi, Bruce. Are you staying for lunch?” Gilda asked. 

“I’d like to stay all day if that’s alright,” Bruce answered. They kissed each other’s cheeks as a greeting. 

“Music or TV?” Gilda asked. 

“Movie please,” Bruce replied as he wrapped his arms around Harvey’s waist. 

Lips brushed softly against Harvey’s neck as he squirmed and giggled. “Gilda, do you have everything you need?” Harvey questioned. Bruce let go and watched as Harvey ran the back of his hand against her cheek. “Still warm?” 

“I’m fine. I’ve got my pistachio ice cream, and my little strawberry syrup, and I’m gonna paint my toes while I watch my little science fiction movies. I’m set… Go. Go have fun before Bruce explodes,” Gilda replied. Harvey kissed her cheek. 

“You are the most beautiful woman alive. Love you so much,” Harvey smiled as Bruce picked him up and carried him to the room.

hey diddle diddle...

is it not so interesting how babies make diddle diddle sounds, at least mine does. especially when she was crawling around, stalking you... XD

Any who.. thus another Clement Hurd study/copy. I would like to remake this again, but maybe with more creative freedom, especially when it comes to color. I just started reading Mixed Media Color Studio by Kellee Wynne Conrad, it has been informative already.

Not sure what it is about those Goodnight Moon illustrations that make me want to draw them myself. I have this thing, where if i see a painting I like in a TV show or film I want to create my own copy...(hence my series of Squidward paintings and love of Pokemon cards for some reason)
