My Yellow Blanky

A gorgeous book, perfect for babies and toddlers that beautifully captures the whole experience of having a favourite blanky and what happens on the day it finally must be washed. A wonderful journey full of love, desperate searching, joyous discovery and the restoration of all the gloriously comforting aromas.

This is Yellow Blanky.
We go everywhere together.

What a joy Yellow Blanky is! Any moment can include a warm reassuring snuggle. And it smells like all the best things in the whole world - it smells of Mummy and mashed banana and Pickett, the dog. Then Yellow Blanky is missing! Then found! But it's lost its beautiful smells... which WILL NOT DO AT ALL!

An adorable story from two of Australia's cherished and award-winning children's book creators.
