Miffy’s Garden

Father Bunny suggests Miffy creates her own garden so she digs the earth, sows some carrot seeds and then watches them grow. When they are ready, she is very excited to harvest them. Mother Bunny cooks them for their tea and they are delicious!

Award-winning UK poet, Tony Mitton, has worked closely with Dick Bruna’s Dutch publisher to create new translations for the classic Miffy stories that are true to the books’ original voice, and yet have a contemporary feel to the language that makes them appealing to the modern young audience. The translations beautifully convey the warmth and friendliness of the original Dutch whilst maintaining a style that is inimitably Miffy.
