What's My Two Blankets About

Publisher Summary

Cartwheel moves to a new country with her auntie, and everything is strange: the animals, the plants–even the wind. An old blanket gives Cartwheel comfort when she’s sad–and a new blanket just might change her world. This multicultural story of friendship is about leaving home, moving to a foreign and strange place, and finding a new friend. It’s a story for all who have experienced change. Irena Kobald’s poetic text, paired with Kate Greenaway medalist Freya Blackwood’s powerful paintings, renders an emotional and heart-warming story about two children from diverse backgrounds coming together to become new friends.
