	Hurd's zany, colorful children's books zoom to prominence
		Now 48, Hurd regularly earns kudos from both critics and children for his books, which feature animals as characters, zany story lines, and the joyous splashes of color that are his trademark illustrations.
		Hurd's parents were fascinated with Margaret Wise Brown, author of "Goodnight Moon" and "The Runaway Bunny," which Clement Hurd also illustrated.
		Hurd also noted that, "when I started out doing this, I clearly knew I wanted to do something totally different." Although Hurd - like his parents - has a straight, sure line into the minds of children, his books are nothing like either Clement or Edith Hurd's.

	Goodnight Moon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Goodnight Moon is a children's book written by Margaret Wise Brown and illustrated by Clement Hurd.
		In 2005, publisher HarperCollins digitally altered the photograph of Hurd, which had been on the book for at least twenty years, to remove a cigarette.
		In episode 1 of Animaniacs, there is a parodical segment Nighty-night Toon, which begins "In the water tower room There was a log flume And a picture of a baboon..." This is an obvious reference to the simple and often silly rhymes in Goodnight Moon.

		If Clement Hurd (1908-1988), the illustrator of Goodnight Moon, led a charmed life, it was not the one his parents had predicted for him.
		The son of a prosperous New York mortgage banker, Hurd attended St. Paul's and Yale and seemed destined to join his father's firm when, in the spring of 1931, he announced his plan to become an artist, and sailed for France that summer.
		It was also at this time that Clement Hurd married another talented picture-book writer and friend of Brown's, Edith Thacher.

		Hurd doesn't recall much about Brown, who died when he was 3.
		While Hurd's early books were reminiscent of his parents' work, he since has developed his own style, winning kudos from critics and readers alike for his picture books filled with zany stories and wildly colorful illustrations.
		Hurd even used a different artistic medium for the book, illustrating it with softly brushed pastels instead of his usual vibrant watercolors.
