Gifts for young art lovers. Meet Melanie, a cuddly character from Dutch author and illustrator Dick Bruna's beloved children's book series. This adorable crocheted bunny wears a tutu and dance shoes like Edgar Degas's (French, 1834–1917) graceful ballerinas in The Dance Class (1874), a highlight of The Met collection. Each 100% cotton Miffy toy from Just Dutch is handcrafted by workers with disabilities in Vietnam, where profits help disadvantaged women maintain a stable income.
