A comically expressive tot pays tribute to the all-important Binky in a bright, playful board book sure to have instant toddler appeal.
Anyone who's spent time with a toddler knows that few crises compare with the (even temporary) loss of a favorite binky. Here, in her humorous, bold graphic style, Leslie Patricelli plays up a scenario near and dear to every toddler's heart, raising the plaintive question: can there be any peace in the house when a beloved binky is not to be found?

About the Author
About the Author
Leslie Patricelli made her board-book debut with the winsome Big Little, Quiet Loud, and Yummy Yucky. "I call Binkyand its companion book Blankie 'the attachment series, '" she says. "During our years of early child-rearing, my husband and I have spent countless frantic hours looking for Binky. Usually the search is tense, as it typically begins when our toddler wants her binky NOW! I found myself thinking how funny it must look to our kids to see us on our hands and knees, digging around the house -- and I began to sketch my baby character looking for his own binky.
