"Hilarious and charming. The most lovable duo since Frog and Toad." —NYT-bestselling creator of the Dog Man and Captain Underpants series, Dav Pilkey
Dive into a brand new Narwhal and Jelly story for the youngest readers! A big, yellow blankie is one of Narwhal's favorite things; not only because it keeps Narwhal warm and cozy, but also because it's not just a blankie. Narwhal can fold it into a hat, wear it as a cape (or a dress!) and even use it for a picnic with a best bud, like Jelly! This charming board book celebrates the power of imagination and reusability, and is perfect for both fans of the Narwhal and Jelly graphic novel series and readers new to the world wide waters.

Starred review from April 1, 2021
Toddler-PreS-From Clanton's early graphic novel series, hilarious best-friend duo Narwhal and Jelly happily talk about their favorite things and dart about in their simple, signature colors across the pages. When reading to younger children, siblings and parents will thoroughly enjoy using different voices for the back-and-forth between reliable Jelly and sunny Narwhal.

Starred review from March 15, 2021
Narwhal and his jellyfish sidekick, Jelly, see just how much joy a simple thing can bring if they use a little imagination. When Jelly remarks on Narwhal's new "blankie," Narwhal points out that it's not just a blanket--it can do so much more. In fact, Narwhal's blankie is amazingly versatile. It's a blanket! It's a hankie! And, of course, after sneezing into it, one can fashion it into a hat and wear it on one's head. Mounted on a stick, it makes a dandy flag; gathered in a knot, it doubles as a bag. Blankie is a great place to host a picnic; it can also be worn as a cape or a dress. But Blankie's best feature, Narwhal points out, is that it's big enough for two--a cozy, warm place to snuggle with a friend. The two friends swim and play against an all-white background that accentuates their delightful expressions and chemistry. A few well-placed motion lines and Blankie's various permutations provide the rest of the story in Clanton's successful adaptation of his Narwhal and Jelly books for school-age readers. The characters' loosely rhymed dialogue unfolds in fast-paced, breezy jokes, and a good-natured sense of play permeates the proceedings. The contemporaneously published volume Bubbles is similarly charming and manages one of the few fart jokes (kids love 'em) that one might arguably describe as clever. A delightful celebration of friendship and fancy. (Board book. 1-4)COPYRIGHT(2021) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
