Synopsis
"Fuzzy goes where I go." Owen's fuzzy yellow blanket is his favorite possession. Everywhere Owen goes, his blanket goes with him. Upstairs, downstairs, in-between. Inside, outside, upside down. Everywhere Owen's parents are in despair--soon Owen will begin school, and he can't take Fuzzy with him then. Whatever can be done? This Caldecott Honor Book will provide reassurance and laughs whether shared at home or during circle time. Every child uses some sort of security object, whether it's a toy, a thumb, or a binky. For those not yet ready to let go and for those who have moved on, here's a story about making compromises that speaks to us all. Everyone who's ever had a favorite blanket will know exactly how Owen feels, A Caldecott Honor Book "Owen is everychild" --Booklist starred review Owen's fuzzy yellow blanket goes where he goes, even when others think he is too old for it. Will Owen's blanket go to school? A classic, evergreen, Caldecott Honor and Boston Globe-Horn Book Honor picture book about comfort and compromise from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kevin Henkes. "Owen had a fuzzy yellow blanket. He'd had it since he was a baby. He loved it with all his heart." Owen's blanket is his favorite possession. Everywhere he goes, Fuzzy goes with him. Upstairs, downstairs, in-between. Inside, outside, upside down. Everywhere! When Owen is about to start school, their neighbor offers advice to Owen's parents about how to get rid of Fuzzy, but Owen foils each attempt. Then his mother comes up with the perfect plan that makes everyone happy. Any child who relies on a comfort object will instantly relate to Owen. This is a story about compromise that speaks both to those not yet ready to let go and those who have moved on. The repetitive, rhythmic text is perfect for reading aloud and story times, and the artwork, in Owen and in all of Kevin Henkes's mouse books, is playful, funny, inviting, and timeless. School Library Journal says, "Most children have a beloved possession that adults expect them to give up, and Owen is sure to become their champion." Kevin Henkes is a #1 New York Times bestselling author who has been awarded the Caldecott Medal for Kitten's First Full Moon, two Caldecott Honors, two Newbery Honors, two Geisel Honors, the Children's Literature Lecture Award, and Children's Literature Legacy Award, among numerous other honors. Favorites from his body of work include the picture books Waiting, A Parade of Elephants, and The World and Everything In It, and the novels for middle grade readers Olive's Ocean, Bird Lake Moon, and the Miller Family Stories. Kevin Henkes's classic and bestselling mouse books include: Chester's Way Chrysanthemum Julius, Baby of the World Lilly's Big Day Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse Owen Sheila Rae, the Brave Wemberly Worried A Weekend with Wendell Penny and Her Marble, Penny and Her Sled, Penny and Her Song, Penny and Her Doll (Level 1 I Can Reads), Owen had a fuzzy yellow blanket. "Fuzzy goes where I go," said Owen. But Mrs. Tweezers disagreed. She thought Owen was too old for a blanket. Owen disagreed. No matter what Mrs. Tweezers came up with, Blanket Fairies or vinegar, Owen had the answer. But when school started, Owen't mother knew just what to do, and everyone -- Owen, Fuzzy, and even Mrs. Tweezers -- was happy.
