Reach for this book when your child is deeply attached to a security object and you want to honor that bond while gently preparing them for the day they might leave it behind. It is a tender tool for transitions, especially for children who feel anxious about growing up or starting school without their favorite comfort item. The story follows Julia and her beloved red blanket from infancy through her first days of school. As Julia grows, the blanket naturally becomes smaller through wear and tear, mirroring her own increasing independence. It celebrates the blanket not as a crutch to be discarded, but as a companion that served its purpose. This is a perfect choice for toddlers and preschoolers (ages 2-5) who need to see that outgrowing something can be a natural, gradual, and happy process.
