Oh no! What happens when a favorite blanket flies away on the breeze?
While a mother and son are out hanging laundry, the child's favorite blanket is picked up by the wind and flies away. Beautiful illustrations show the blanket on its journey through the neighborhood as it visits many different animal mothers and babies, eventually returning to its original owner to be cherished and loved. A "Note to Parents" is included.
Book Review and Awards
"Pidgen's cheerful artwork is reassuring, with a bright palette, loose, sweeping lines, and plenty of attention on mother-child tenderness, human and animal alike. The message about attachment, security, and sometimes letting go is conveyed subtly and organically." -- Publishers Weekly
