Like so many great children’s characters, Miffy (pictured) started out as a bedtime story: Dutch artist Dick Bruna would tell his son about the little white rabbit scampering around their garden.
Now, with stories translated into 50 languages, Miffy is a global phenomenon, celebrating her 65th anniversary this year.

‘Everything I’ve ever done has been to try to make people a little happier,’ said Bruna.
He passed away in 2017, but this book shows just how successful he was in his mission to spread joy to the millions of readers who love that little white rabbit.
