Description

The rabbit character Miffy (or Nijntje in its original Dutch) holds a primitive pipe made by hollowing out a stick. The story says that her grandfather made the pipe for Miffy. The representation is not meant to be too accurate as this is a very minimal illustrative style.

Instruments [MIMO Code] (notes)

Recorder [4039] (The book title is translated as 'flute' but the instrument is clearly meant to be a primitive duct flute or handfluit.)
