Beyond her books, Miffy has become a cultural phenomenon: she appears in television series, exhibitions, and on countless products, from stuffed animals to clothing. Yet she always remains true to Dick Bruna's minimalist style, which has garnered worldwide admiration.
Whether you call her Miffy or Nijntje, this little bunny has a big heart and a lasting influence on generations of children and adults. She proves that simplicity is sometimes the most powerful form of art and imagination.
