Blanket Tekijä: Margot Apple
The little boy in this story can't sleep without his blanket but his mom said it had to be washed. That night mom tired to find some other way to comfort the boy so he could sleep. They read a story and she put his favorite stuffed animals in bed with him. In the middle of the night, the boy wakes up and with a little help from his friends he gets his blanket. Mom is shocked and wonders how he got the blanket in the middle of the night.
Brave Martha is a light hearted and funny read. It is about a little girl and her cat that helps her get ready at night for bed. Without spoiling the plot, I believe this book is good for the children who have trouble sleeping at night. Read this book before going to bed to show them that there is nothing to be afraid of.
Martha and Sofie, the cat, can do everything together. One day Sofie is missing and Martha is scared. Then Sofie returns and Martha is not scared any more.

Blanket is about a boy's attachment to his blanket. His mother has to leave it outside over night on the clothesline to dry. But, the boy still can not sleep. So, all the things around him begin to help. The moon has a voice, the wind, the clothes, the kitty. I think this is a great book to foster imagination. I believe children would highly enjoy the fact that the clothes, blanket, and boy all dance together. There is also dialogue within the text which I think fosters a good sense of story line. I would highly recommend this book.… (lisätietoja)
