I’m Richard Fuller, a father who believes childhood is built through the little moments that become our most treasured memories. *Binkie, Blankie, and Me* was inspired by my daughter, Xiara, and the love, comfort, and security she found in her binkie (pacifier) and blankie (blanket). Watching her grow, I realized these simple treasures represented far more than everyday objects—they symbolized love, safety, and the memories our family will cherish forever.
I wrote this keepsake to capture those precious early years and give families a story they can enjoy together while creating memories of their own. My hope is that this book becomes a cherished bedtime tradition, reminding children that love, comfort, and imagination can make the world feel safe, even long after they’ve outgrown their favorite treasures.
