This children's picture book is an adaptation of the second half of Season 2, Episode 11 of The Powerpuff Girls, in which Buttercup feels like she needs her lucky blankie to help her fight crime. Her obsession (or addiction?) with her blankie is starting to affect her crime-fighting though...


I loved The Powerpuff Girls as a kid (and also had a lucky blankie too) so reading this was very nostalgic (not to mention that this book comes with stickers too!).

Part of a personal challenge to read all of my boyfriend's and his sister's childhood books before we donate and give them away.
