Owen


Another mouse book written by Kevin Henkes, Owen, tells the story of a young mouse that won't part with his blankie. The characters in this book are humorous and quirky like the neighbor that keeps offering advice for Owen's parents. This is a book for any child that had something he or she didn't want to give up as they grew out of it. I love how the parents keep adapting and trying new ways to get Owen to give up the blanket.
