Her parents try to hide it, but she always finds it. In the end, Geraldine finds a way to keep her blanket. This was one of my favorite books when I was little. It is about a little piggy who doesn't want to give her blanket up as she grows older. She gets creative and makes a dress for her doll out of the blanket, so she still gets to keep it. Thsi was a cute book about a little girl and her beloved blanket that her aunt gave her. She found many creative uses for it and took it everywhere she went. When her parents thought she was too old for it, she found a new use for it and made her new doll clothes out of the blanket. Conservation could be a great theme to get out of this book to talk about with younger children. How did Geraldine re-use her old blanket? She made it into a dress for her new dolly. Growing up and changing is also a great theme to talk about. We don't have to change everything about us to grow up, just grow up a little bit and act appropriately. no reviews | add a review
