First sentence: Owen had a fuzzy yellow blanket. He’d had it since he was a baby. He loved it with all his heart.
Premise/plot: Owen loves, loves, loves his blanket. Life is good—no, life is great! But school threatens to change all that. Owen’s parents are being encouraged by a nosy neighbor that Owen absolutely has to lose the blanket before he starts school. Can Owen keep his Fuzzy and start growing up into a big boy (big mouse, I suppose) too?
My thoughts: Owen is a great book. I love, love, love the writing, the story, the characters, the illustrations, just everything. It really is a timeless story. Highly recommended.

I really liked this book, too. I was glad that the parents didn't give in to the neighbor, and came up with a solution that kept everybody happy.
