What Happens in the Story?
The story is about a young girl named Trixie Willems. She has a special toy rabbit called Knuffle Bunny. One day at school, Trixie sees that her classmate, Sonja, has the exact same bunny!
The two girls start to argue about their bunnies. Their teacher, Mrs. Greengrove, takes both stuffed animals away. She gives them back at the end of the school day.
Later that night, at 2:30 AM, Trixie wakes up. She realizes that her teacher gave her Sonja's Knuffle Bunny by mistake! Trixie asks her dad, Mo, to call Sonja's house. They arrange to swap the toy rabbits back. After this mix-up, Trixie and Sonja quickly become good friends.
