Description

Emily Brown's beloved rabbit, Stanley, is not for sale, not even to Queen Gloriana the Third. Despite being offered all the toys she could ever want, Emily refuses to part with Stanley. When Queen Gloriana steals Stanley, calling him 'Bunnywunny', Emily embarks on a quest to get him back. Throughout her journey, Emily teaches the queen the importance of loving and caring for a special toy, just as she does with Stanley. This charming picture book is a collaboration between the author of 'How to Train Your Dragon' and the author/illustrator of 'Oscar and Arabella'. A stunning reissue of this classic picture book. When the Queen steals Emily Brown's favourite toy and erstwhile companion, a toy rabbit called Stanley, Emily sets out to get him back and teach that naughty queen a valuable lesson! Winner of the 2006 Nestle Gold Award, chosen for the Richard & Judy Christmas book party, a Bookaboo Book Club book as seen on CITV and read by Amanda Holden. 'Charming, funny and gets my vote as the best picture book of the year.' - Financial Times Written by Cressida Cowell, the bestselling author of the How to Train Your Dragon series. http://www.cressidacowell.co.uk/ Illustrated by award winning Neal Layton, creator of Stanley's Stick. http://www.neallayton.co.uk/
