The cute rabbit character was originally created in 1955 by Dutch author and illustrator Dick Bruna. Whilst on holiday with his family he drew the bunny character whilst telling his son a bed time story, all about a little rabbit who hops around a holiday home at night.
Fun facts for all you fans; Miffy was originally called 'nijntje' in the Netherlands, which derives from the Dutch word 'Koninijntje' which means 'Little Bunny'. However, as those outside of the Netherlands struggled with the pronunciation, the bunny became best known as Miffy. This name was thought to be more universal and easier to pronounce in multiple languages.
