Owen
A Caldecott Honor Book by Kevin Henkes
Did you ever have a special blanket? Owen did!
Owen did not want to give up his blanket. He took it where ever he went.
The neighbor Mrs Tweezers gave mom and dad ideas of getting rid of the blanket they tried the blanket fairy and the vinegar trick. Then she told them to say no but nothing worked.
Blanket Fairy
He stuffed his blanket in his pants.
Vinegar Trick
He picked another corner.
Say no!
Owen cried.
Mom finally came up with an idea she cut and sewed it into a handkerchief. Owen took the handkerchief where ever he went.
