    Without googling or researching further, please tell me if you know what #21 of this EQD Drawfriend references:

    http://www.equestriadaily.com/2012/...howComment=1328632998523#c6220235311531130322

    It is kind of surprising to me that nobody in the comments section who commented on #21 noticed it was a reference to anything. Is the fan base really that young to be the generation that didn't grow up with [whatever it is]?

    It kinda reminds me of good night moon, this super old children's book.
    I haven't read it since forever.

    Nope, no clue.

    Excluding the fact there's a comment saying it's a Goodnight Moon reference.

    Was that you, by any chance, Manehattanite?

    There was a book (I can't remember what it was called) but in each picture of it, the room would get progressively darker and the moon would rise in the window. The character reading the story would be sitting by a fireplace, not too disimliar to the one in the picture.

    *EDIT* I remember the name of the book, it was "Goodnight Moon"

    First quote from the Deviant Art page. Based on it lining up with the responses here, it must be. The artist doesn't explicitly state it, though.

    I looked the pictures from Good Night Moon, but nothing is really jumping out to me. I mean, maybe I saw it, but I don't recall.

    I am 36 and have read hundreds of books. I have no idea what you are talking about. Then I seldom read books that have pictures, other than the occasional comic.
