Great find
A toddler friendly Gruffalo! Very soft and huggable. My kids love it, the sounds match the mouse & gruffalo from the short film that’s available on prime. It’s hard to find a cute gruffalo & this one is perfect.

It talks !!
My granddaughter lives this monster esp since it talks. She had gotten the other one but this by far is the winner.

Super Soft and Cuddly
The Gruffalo is an adorable book and an even cuter animated short. Either way you choose to enjoy it, this plushie enhances the experience. Great for cuddling and perfect sized for little hands.

The button on the ear stopped working - two different toys, same problem
My daughter LOVES this little guy, and I want to give it 5 stars. Unfortunately, the button on the ear stopped working after only two weeks. No problem, right, we assumed it was just faulty and purchased another one. The ear button lasted a month this time, but did eventually ALSO stop working. She's heartbroken - this means that she doesn't get to hear the Gruffalo's voice (since you have to press the three buttons in a particular order). We won't be buying a third one :(

Great toy, but can confuse younger kids wanting to hear the Gruffalo speak
My nephew loved this toy as a Christmas gift. Once we unboxed the Gruffalo and got it going, he didn't want to give it up, as he loves the book. The only problem was when you push the buttons, you get Winnie the Pooh instead of the Gruffalo. It's not actually the Gruffalo speaking when you push a button, but the mouse telling the story of the Gruffalo. And, it's made more confusing by the voice actor using their Winnie the Pooh voice for the mouse. The other issue is that if you want to hear the Gruffalo, you have to hit the different sensors in the correct order to unlock a very short sound (1 of 9 different phrases) from the Gruffalo itself. This can be confusing and difficult for the younger ones who just want to push the buttons. I think more Gruffalo sounds would have been much better for the toy with an option to hear the story told by the mouse. But, all in all, a nice toy. Soft for younger kids and durable for rough play.

2.5yr old son, very much loves the gruffalo and gruffalos child. He got this as a gift. Absolutely loves it! It’s great that it’s soft and talks. Good size for a toddler too. It’s nice it has the mouse’s voice as he knows those quotes. He’s managed to figure out how the find the gruffalos voice which he seems to enjoy. If the toy isn’t played with for a little it will re-set to the mouse's voice. Overall a really lovely toy in my opinion.

Absolutely brilliant. So much bigger than expected and lovely and soft. My children (5, 4 and 2) love it!! Well worth the money. Would recommend to all, especially Gruffalo fans!

Cute and soft but only says a couple phrases. Ideal for older child such as 4/5 years. My 2 year old hates it. It’s boring

Nice teddy and well made but the voice is so quiet we needed to put our ear to it to hear it. It didn't grab our 2 year old's attention as a result. Pity.
