My Special Blankie

Summary


"My Special Blankie" is a gentle children's picture book story about a little one carried close on Mama's back, inseparable from a cherished blankie. Through the rhythms of a busy day — noisy play while Mama works quietly, mealtimes, bath time, and bedtime stories — the blankie is a constant, comforting presence. The story captures the tender bond between a child and their caregiver, wrapped in simple, repetitive language that makes it irresistible to read aloud.

Can you see me?

I’m on Mama’s back in my special blankie.

I love Mama.
And Mama loves me.

And I love, love, LOVE my special blankie.

I like to make a noise.

Boom! Bang! Bash!

But Mama likes quiet.

Shhh Shhh Shhh

Mama does her work.

And I like to play.

Woah! Woah! Woah!

Oh, I love, love, LOVE my special blankie.

But when I eat, Mama says my special blankie must watch.

And when I wash, my special blankie must wait where it is dry.

I love bedtime stories with Mama.
My special blankie listens with me…

…and helps me go to sleep.

I love, love, LOVE my special blankie.
