Has rejection wounded you, creating fear in your interactions with others? It is time to break this stronghold in your life!

Ah! Stubborn children. Don't we all want to tear our hair out at some point because of them? ( )

Owen is a little boy who loves his fuzzy yellow blanket and carries it with him wherever he goes. Owen's neighbor Mrs. Tweezers convinces his parents that he is too old to be playing with "Fuzzy" and offers them strategies for how to get rid of it. In the end, Owen's mother repurposes Fuzzy into handkerchiefs that he can bring with him to school. This book is intended for younger children and would be perfect to read in pre-k and kindergarten. It's a story about easing the transition between home and school. I think that many children would find the story relatable and comforting. The book is illustrated in Henkes's signature style -- colorful images of little mice and their families. I would highly recommend this book. ( )
