Can you help reunite this little boy with his favourite toy?

A little boy has lost his favourite toy and he needs your help to get it back.

Four-year-old Maks was in a Saint Vincent De Paul charity shop in Castletownbere, West Cork with his mom Agnes and his favourite toy ‘Batman’ yesterday.

Unfortunately, when the pair left the shop, they left poor Batman behind and before they realised the child’s sidekick was missing, the toy was sold from the shop to another family.

The little boy’s mother has said her son is devastated without his Batman and she has begun a social media campaign to get the toy home to her son.

Agnes said they left the shop at around 1.30pm and went back to the shop half an hour later, but the toy was already gone.

Max is very upset as he has just got his Batman two weeks ago from his grandmother who lives in Poland.

It is a story not unlike the very emotional and heart wrenching ‘Toy Story’ and hopefully we can get a happy ending for this tale just like in the movies.

If you bought a Batman toy in St Vincent De Paul’s in Castletownbere, pleaseget in contact by emailing Roisin.burke@breakingnews.ie or if you haven’t, please share this post so it might reach the person who did.

A simple click could help make a little boy very happy.

Batman has been found! His mother posted this photo to her Facebook.

Speaking to breakingnews.ie, she said they had tracked down the person who had bought Batman and reunited him with her son.

So all's well that ends well.
