Small Bunny loves his blue “blankie” so much that he always has it with him. It does everything that he does, from going for a swing ride to painting a picture or reading a book. Somehow, his blanket buddy seems to help Small Bunny to swing the highest, paint the best pictures and read the hardest words. Small Bunny thinks his blankie is perfect – but Mother Bunny thinks differently. One day she insists that both he and his blanket need a good bath. After Small Bunny’s bath, his mother puts his blue blanket into the washing machine, assuring him that “it will only take a minute.” For a full 107 minutes, Small Bunny anxiously watches his blanket being laundered. When he finally gets it back, it somehow isn’t the same. Young listeners (many of whom will have their own special blanket or other comfort toy such as a stuffed animal) will agree with the clever way in which Small Bunny makes his blanket “perfect” again in this appealing story, enhanced with Tatyana Feeney’s whimsical line drawings.

The illustrations are wonderful, but the story and text fall flat.

This book is super cute !! My daughter had a favourite blanket and this story reminds me of how much she loved hers.
