Nubby
Nubby the stuffed rabbit is his owner's favorite toy, but you wouldn't know it from the way he's treated. He's been dropped, dragged, and even used as a nose wipe. He decides to strike out for a fresh start, and his adventure takes him across the realm--or at least around the cul-de-sac--in search of treasure, fame, and glory. But these rewards aren't as sweet as Nubby hoped they'd be. What's missing?
As Nubby travels through the neighborhood, his owner's family begins to search for him. Nubby's journey might not have taken him far, but it does teach him one thing: no amount of glory could replace the love of his owner.

"A worthy tribute to all the beleaguered, beloved toys who serve as constant, comforting companions through childhood." --BookPage
