Small Bunny's Blue Blanket

Author: Tatyana Feeney
Illustrator: Tatyana Feeney
Publisher: OUP Oxford

Small Bunny LOVES Blue Blanket. He needs it to help him do everyday things like paint good pictures, swing high and read difficult words. Mummy decides that Blue Blanket desperately needs a wash. Small Bunny is very anxious as his beloved comforter spends ‘107 minutes’ in the washing machine. The ‘good as new’ blanket that emerges from the laundry is at first met with suspicion by its owner, but after a full day’s painting, swinging, reading and playing, Blue Blanket is soon perfect again.
