Owen's tears at losing his friend gives his mother an idea, and soon Owen is able to take Fuzzy to school without anyone realizing it. They resort to such tactics like dipping her in vinegar and outright telling Owen he may not take her to school. So begins gentle nudging from Owen's parents to make him give up Fuzzy before he begins going to school. As Owen deals with the daily trials and tribulations of a 4-year-old (going to the dentist, getting a haircut), Fuzzy is called into service on a regular basis.
Owen hides Fuzzy in the pants of his pajamas to avoid losing him. Soon Owen's parents are telling him that Fuzzy is going to disappear and be replaced by a toy that is for big boys.
Twitter - starts to suggest that Owen is too old for such a thing. Owen's parents don't think much about their son's attachment to his blanket until a nosey old neighbor - Mrs. Owen (the book) is the story of a little mouse who can't go anywhere or do anything without his "Fuzzy." Fuzzy experiences life with Owen, 'eating and drinking' orange juice, ice cream and applesauce cake. I think maybe Kevin Henkes saw us at the park one day and became inspired by my adorable son, and wrote this beautifully illustrated and sweetly written book about a little mouse named Owen who sucks his thumb and has a comfort blanket named "Fuzzy." Henkes probably changed LeLe into Fuzzy to protect the innocent. When the book came out, my Owen had a year to establish himself as a little human being and by the time he was a year old he had a comfort "LeLe" - a Lambchop puppet with a soft wooly fleece and he sucked his thumb. The book Owen came out in 1993 and the person Owen came out in 1992. PLEASE CAREFULLY REVIEW ALL OF THE ACTUAL BOOK'S PICTURES as they, in conjunction with written description, comprise the most accurate & definitive description.I would personally like to thank Kevin Henkes for writing the book Owen because it seemed like a gift to me and my son, Owen.
