In this book it demonstrates the difficulties a child might have when going to a new place by themselves. In this book we see Alfie struggle to attend his friends birthday party alone so he brings his blanket. Towards the end of the story we see him opening up and having fun with his friends since he was not afraid anymore. ( )

A book about Alfie who is nervous to go a sleepover and needs his blanket. He had a great time and doesn't need his blanket and overcomes his shyness. This book teaches personality development by teaching emotions and how children cope with these feelings. It teaches children what type of person they are and what makes them feel certain emotions.
