In 2015 it is 60 years since the Miffy books first started delighting children and their parents. "Miffy in the Netherlands" is one of many special anniversary products that have been developed to celebrate this special occasion. There are also various special events to enjoy.

A fun initiative to follow is the Miffy Art Parade: a project that honours Miffy, her creator, and fans of all ages worldwide. The Miffy Art Parade unites, inspires and is helping to create a better future in partnership with UNICEF.

The history of Miffy
The first book about Miffy (named Nijntje in Dutch) was published in 1955. Her creator Dick Bruna recounts how, during a family holiday, he told his oldest son a story about the little bunny hopping around in the garden of their holiday home. He did some drawings of the little bunny, and Miffy was born.
Miffy has since appeared as the leading character in 32 books that have been translated into more than 50 languages and sold more than 85 million copies worldwide.
