Book Synopsis

In "Blankie" by Leslie Patricelli, a young toddler takes readers on an endearing adventure involving their beloved security blanket. The story unfolds as the child's attachment to their treasured blankie is put to the test.

From the moment they wake up, the toddler refuses to let go of their cherished blankie. It provides a sense of comfort and security, accompanying them on every activity throughout the day. From breakfast and playtime to even a trip to the potty, the blankie is always close by.

However, when it comes time for a bath, the toddler must face a difficult decision. Should they let their blankie go temporarily, or risk getting it wet? The child hesitates, unsure of how to proceed.

As the toddler contemplates their options, the story showcases the child's vivid imagination. The blankie transforms into different characters and objects, each capturing the child's attention and distracting them from their predicament.
