Beautiful picture book that explores imagination paired with anxiety about change and going to new places. This will be a definite hit in my classroom.
Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Random House Canada for this DRC.

Cute book that is sure to give children some laughs with the many references to toilet paper. I think many children will be able to relate to the anxiety fuzzy feels about going to a new place. What a relief to know that fuzzy enjoyed his trip after all- showing children that trying new things even if you are nervous can be fun!
One thing I love about picture books is that it allows you to teach your kids about different aspects of life in a gentle and sometimes a little humorous way. Warm and Fuzzy is a book that has an anxious and worrisome young character. He's always asking WHAT IF?? Unsure how to move forward in new situations. The older, more mature character is able to calmly and gently explain to him that it'll be okay, we'll get through anything, together. Even though my kids don't struggle with anxiety, usually, I was able to explain how some kids do. And that they can be a calm and gentle encouragement to them.
My family adored the illustrations and got a few giggles out of the writing as well.
Thank you Penguin Random House and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
Very cute, children will love the characters and parents will love the name of the characters! Relatable to parents with children who have anxiety about going to new places and trying new things. Kids will think the toilet paper to be extremely funny too!
Absolutely adorable!! I am definitely Fuzzy in this scenario. This is going to be a great addition to picture books, full of all those questions that the slightly anxious worry about before leaving the house, I think it will resonate with both kids and adults. Having Warm be so casual but still reassuring is a great addition, and of course their names.
The illustrations are engaging without being overwhelming, and I love the colour palette.
Thank you netgalley and the publisher for this e-ARC!
Not gonna lie, this one got chuckles out of me. It's definitely silly and for children, but the constant toilet paper remarks got me. I'm not very much a "plan-free journey" type of person, but it can be good to rest in knowing you're able to handle the situations you run into and enjoy the present. Definitely a cute read for the kiddos <3
Cute story about two friends, named Warm and Fuzzy. Warm wants to go on an adventure, but Fuzzy wants to know all the details of where they are going and what they will be doing. Eventually, Warm convinces him to go on their adventure because they are capable and can handle anything that comes their way. This would be a great book for children who get anxious about new experiences! Really enjoyed the messaging of this book.
