I saw this doll at a local store, but didn't buy it at the time. My 2 year old likes the Llama Llama book series, so I decided to look for it on Amazon and found it at a better price. I was pleasantly surprised to receive the doll bigger than expected. At approx. 11" tall, the doll is a good size to be hugged and carried by a small child. The tiny teddy bear is sewn to Llama Llama's hand, but can be detached by simply cutting the thread. The red pajamas can also be removed. This doll is wonderful and appreciated by children who enjoy of the Llama Llama books.
