Johnson is a courageous pink elephant, who is considered to be the leader of the toys. He enjoys reading Michael's books, and is quite intelligent, though he has trouble counting higher than 1!
He is Michael's favourite toy, and due to this fact he has been damaged numerous times over the years. He is kind, loyal and thoughtful - his friends usually turn to him when a complication arises.
Although he is very knowledgable - he is very wary of the world outside Michael's bedroom - though he has been known to leave the house on several occasions, both with intent and by accident!
