Book Introduction
There are children who are afraid of the wind, the rain, the darkness, and even small creatures like cats and birds.
One night, Tommy wakes up from a dream of giants swarming him and hugs a large, soft blanket in his closet.
And I think.
“Can’t this blanket protect me from everything in the world?”

Tommy's anxiety objectifies everyone he encounters in reality and extends even into his imagination.
Tommy thought he had calmed his anxiety by wrapping himself in a blanket with a desperate heart!
Here, the blanket is another metaphor for a powerful 'defense mechanism'.
It's only natural that every moment bordered by a thick, brightly colored blanket is bound to be a whirlwind of adventure.
Because life is a reality that I must face…
I support Tommy, who breaks free from those boundaries and breathes fully as 'himself'.

Into the book
Tommy is afraid of the wind, the rain, the dark, and even cats and birds.
That's how Tommy developed a hard shell.
It's a big, cozy 'blanket'!
"This blanket will protect me from everything in the world!"
Since the blanket appeared, Tommy has been afraid of nothing.
The moment Tommy runs out to save the little bird,
The blanket is falling apart.
Tommy, who was born into the world without a blanket,
What is Tommy thinking?

Publisher's Review
Beyond fear, one step into the world
Marie d'Orléans' new work, "Blanket"
Tommy is afraid of the wind, the rain, the dark, and even small creatures like cats and birds.
I'm afraid of all unpredictable situations.
One night, Tommy wakes up from a dream of giants swarming him, and finds himself hugging a large, soft blanket in his closet.
Tommy thinks he got through that scary night safely.
“Can’t this blanket protect me from everything in the world?”
From that day on, Tommy becomes one with the blanket and goes out into the world.
Tommy, who came to regard the blanket as a fortress, experiences many things he had never experienced before.
You will be able to hear the honking sound of cars on the way to school and go out to the playground you have never been to before.
Tommy, who unexpectedly encounters the 'safety' of a 'blanket', gradually gets closer to the world.
And without you even knowing it, you will gradually accumulate new experiences.
Watch a child trapped in fear step out into the world on his own.
This story is also a story of growth that we have all experienced or are experiencing.
“Life is beautiful, life is beautiful, life is beautiful.”
Fear and courage,
A book that talks about the beauty of life
"Blanket" delicately addresses the inner world of children, filled with anxiety and fear, while warmly showing the meaning of "one's own blanket" that tightly embraces their hearts.
And Tommy stands in the world without a blanket, by his own strength.
Standing without a blanket, feeling the snowflakes fall, feeling the damp snow underfoot, listening to the birds singing, and the cats purring.
Realize what it is like to embrace the joys of life with your whole body.
How great courage shows us how beautiful the world is, and how little fear makes us appreciate it.
Marie d'Orléans delicately captured the moment when fear melts away and we face the world.
“Life is beautiful, everything is good.” The song of life conveyed by these sentences leaves a warm resonance in the hearts of those who read them.
The moment you close the last page of this picture book, readers will find themselves bravely stepping into the world with Tommy.
