Emily Brown has a special toy, an old gray rabbit named Stanley. Every day they live amazing adventures together: travel in space, underwater, through the desert or the rainforests.
So when Queen Gloriana's Chief Footman knocks on Emily's door, offering to trade Stanley for a brand new teddy bear, Emily says, firmly, NO.
The queen doesn't put up with rejection and sends, in turn, her army, navy, and air force, each offering more and more gifts in exchange for a toy bunny.
Nothing convinces Emily to part with her favorite toy, and then, by order of Queen Gloriana, Stanley the rabbit is stolen from the bedroom. Emily is beside herself! She goes to the palace immediately! She saves her beloved rabbit and reveals to the queen the secret of how she could make up a friend.
