A missing stuffed llama proved to be newsworthy in Spartanburg, S.C., where Hub City Bookshop "used the power of social media to reunite a young child with her stuffed animal," 7News reported.
Last weekend, the bookstore posted a photo of the stuffed llama on its Facebook page, noting: "This poor llama was separated from her owner at the bookshop on Saturday. Please call the bookshop on 577-9349 if you have any information to help us return to her home!"
The child's father returned to the bookshop with his daughter and rescued the llama.
"She ran around, very excited," said Hub City's floor manager Linda Prince. "I wish I'd gotten the name of the stuffed animal because she seemed very excited to be reunited with it. And she even bought a book, The Cat in the Hat Comes Back."
