Will Owen’s blanket go to school? A classic, evergreen, Caldecott Honor and Boston Globe–Horn Book Honor picture book about comfort and compromise from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kevin Henkes. “Owen had a fuzzy yellow blanket. He’d had it since he was a baby. He loved it with all his heart.” Owen’s blanket is his favorite possession. Everywhere he goes, Fuzzy goes with him. Upstairs, downstairs, in-between. Inside, outside, upside down. Everywhere! When Owen is about to start school, their neighbor offers advice to Owen’s parents about how to get rid of Fuzzy, but Owen foils each attempt. Then his mother comes up with the perfect plan that makes everyone happy. Any child who relies on a comfort object will instantly relate to Owen . This is a story about compromise that speaks both to those not yet ready to let go and those who have moved on. The repetitive, rhythmic text is perfect for reading aloud and story times, and the artwork, in Owen and in all of Kevin Henkes’s mouse books, is playful, funny, inviting, and timeless. School Library Journal says, “Most children have a beloved possession that adults expect them to give up, and Owen is sure to become their champion.” Kevin Henkes is a #1 New York Times bestselling author who has been awarded the Caldecott Medal for Kitten’s First Full Moon , two Caldecott Honors, two Newbery Honors, two Geisel Honors, the Children’s Literature Lecture Award, and Children’s Literature Legacy Award, among numerous other honors. Favorites from his body of work include the picture books Waiting, A Parade of Elephants, and The World and Everything In It , and the novels for middle grade readers Olive’s Ocean, Bird Lake Moon , and the Miller Family Stories.

It has been one of our children's favorites and now, guess what, we have an Owen due in our daughter's family in only a matter of months. So what more fitting gift could we send than a copy of this fine book and his very own yellow baby blanket - well, at least material for one :-) If you are not familiar with Owen, he's a little tyke who's growing up yet he does not want to let go of his security blanket. Everyone tries to help him leave it behind and grow up...what happens? You'll have to read it for yourself to find out. An adorable story and illustrations by Kevin Henkes. If you like Owen you will also like other stories written and illustrated by this author. 5 stars! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/4195022-owen-a-story-about-letting-go-of-a-comfort-object](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/4195022-owen-a-story-about-letting-go-of-a-comfort-object) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
