In the Great Green Room: the Brilliant and Bold Life of Margaret Wise Brown Archive Review: IN THE GREAT GREEN ROOM: THE BRILLIANT AND BOLD LIFE OF MARGARET WISE BROWN by Amy Gary Author: Guest Reviewer | Feb242017 Categories: Book Reviews, Nonfiction No comments In the Great Green Room is an eminently readable biography. The book sheds light on Brown’s creative process and unlikely sources of inspiration. Gary sheds new light on how Goodnight Moon was made, and in doing so we appreciate it even more.
