If you've ever felt lost, then you'll know just how Trixie's favorite stuffed
Knuffle Bunny feels when he's left all alone. If you've ever felt loved, then
you'll know just how Trixie, Knuffle Bunny, and their family feel when they're
together. It sounds so simple, just a quick trip to the Laundromat with
Daddy, Trixie, and her beloved Knuffle Bunny. But, before you know it things
go horribly, hilariously wrong.

Chock full of adventure, song, and gigantic dancing laundry, Knuffle Bunny:
A Cautionary Musical
tells a tale of firsts: a stuffed animal's first trip in the
laundry, a little girl's first words, and a Daddy's first time dealing with his
child going "boneless." Based on his beloved Caldecott Honor–winning
picture book, six-time Emmy Award winner Mo Willems joins Grammy Award®
–winning composer Michael Silversher to lovingly celebrate the heart and
heartache that can only come from a family visit to the local Laundromat.
We mentioned the giant dancing laundry, right?
