Please help me find my friend's daughter's toy bunny (Floffle 2)

[StepAwayFromGoogle]

I'm hopeful that the power of mumsnet might be able to help my friend find a replacement for her daughter's lost bunny. I've attached a pic. It's a toy that came with a book called 'Tell me something nice before I go to sleep'. My friend thinks it's probably about 14 years old as it was a hand me down. She's tried Facebook with no success and can't find it anywhere online. Her daughter is bereft without her bunny. I'm hoping that one of you might have one sitting in a corner somewhere or know where she can buy one - she'll happily pay. Fingers crossed...

DD had that bunny. I'll check her drawers in the morning to see if she still has it (she's older now, she won't miss it). I think ours wears different PJs though...

That would be amazing, @RhymesWithOrange! I'm hoping she may be able to explain away the different PJs... I'll check...

Have you tried www.abebooks.co.uk/servlet/SearchResults?an=joyce%20dunbar&tn=tell%20happy%20before%20sleep&cm_sp=click--plp--ntb think this might be it?

The bunny is called Willa ( title: Tell me something Happy Before I Go To Sleep) and it appears to be available on this site in Australia:

Good luck

Thanks very much! Off to bed now but I'll check those out in the morning...

or here - I haven't signed up though so I don't know how much it is.

Looks like it isn't available to buy at any of those sites so I think we might have to rely on someone somewhere having one tucked away in a drawer or wardrobe. Keeping my fingers and toes crossed...

This is my Willa, different pyjamas I'm afraid....

The face is quite different as well, might not be a good enough substitute...

I'll send the picture to my pal - thank you! Can't believe it's this hard to find one. I'm wondering whether it's worth contacting the publishers after all this time...

Can you buy this as it seems to have the toy: www.abebooks.co.uk/9780385605519/Tell-Happy-Before-Sleep-Mini-Book-038560551X/plp?

@MRex - thanks for trying, but there are no available copies

It’s not available any more MRex. That’s the point of the thread.

I think you should start a new thread with a more ‘to the point’ title with the name of the book in it as I agree that someone having one lying around is your best bet.

I gave mine to a MN user called OrchidFlakes last year who had the same problem. I may not have been the only one with the toy. I shall try and search out the thread for you.

I hope the link shows as I use the app to post.

@DrivingTat has found it!!

😮 Amazing! Well done! I’m on the edge of my seat now!

ooh its buy it now as well. how tense... what if someone else buys it!

We used to have it but it was chewed by the dogs a few years ago. This post has brought back some memories! I hope you get one

If the Op doesn't come back soon or doesn't have an Ebay account, a MNetter should buy it and then send it to her before a non Mner does?

Agh, I don't have an eBay account and I've been in a meeting!!! What do I do?

Msg link to friend ?

Done. Good job there are people on mumsnet not panicking! Fingers crossed my friend gets it. I've tried to set up an eBay account but it keeps kicking me out.

Aw, it's saying 'this item is out of stock'. On the plus side I now know the brand name from eBay...

Aww, that's really crap OP.

It only took me about 5 minutes to find it on eBay (was on 15min break), so maybe you will come across another one. Also you don't need a account with eBay, you can checkout as guest. So you know for next time.

Never know though maybe your friend bought it, or someone on here to give to you.
