Help me find a book from my childhood

I had this book as a child, I remember it came with a cassette of the story, had a lilac cover, and I think was part of a series.

It was about a girl who travels to a magical land made of fabric and she meets a little lamb (think it was made from calico). They become friends and she somehow becomes a giant. The lamb gets trapped in a mine and she's too big to get inside and rescue him. She gets small again (by crying?) and rescues her friend. The message was about it not mattering if you're only small or something like that.

DD has been asking me about books I liked when I was her age so I want to track down a copy for her but can't remember the flipping title!

I have a vague memory of something similar to this. Was it called Fluff Puff Farm?

Was it something from the land of pleasant dreams series? They had pastel covers and fabric animals and cassettes

That's also sounds familiar. I'm sure that's Fluff Puff Farm was part of the Land of Pleasant Dreams series. I loved listening to the cassette story.

I still remember the lyrics to the song in The Bear that was Chicken..

I know that I can be brave a great full of courage is never afraid,
And I know that I can be brave, cos courage is how brave hearts are made.

And A Fence too High...

Can't never could and quitters never win,
If at first you don't succeed then try and try again.

I am looking for a children's book about green furry monkey-like creatures. Some of them lived on the land and those that did leapt from tree to tree with their springy tails and others lived in the sea. I think they might be called rinky dinks. Some swam in the sea. There was a flood and the ones on the land were wiped out or they developed swimming tails. I think it was used to explain evolution.
