Synopsis
A toy velveteen rabbit longs to be loved, and he begins to experience this when a boy adopts him as his favorite toy. But the rabbit wonders about "real" after meeting two rabbits with feet that pad softly on the ground and with noses that twitch. He learns that he can't jump like the other rabbits and that he smells different. It's only when a mysterious nursery fairy kisses him that the velveteen rabbit learns finally what it's like to be real--not just to the boy, but to everyone. Gennady Spirin's beguiling ink-and-watercolor illustrations bring new life to Margery Williams's classic text, invigorating it with mystery and pathos before the rabbit is transformed by the fairy's magical touch. A historical note is included., Still as poignant today as it has ever been, Margery Williams' The Velveteen Rabbit is one of the best-loved children's books of all time. In the nursery, only the toys that are old and wise truly understand what it means to be Real. The Velveteen Rabbit, a newcomer to the nursery, asks one of the most knowledgeable toys, the Skin Horse, what being real means. "Real isn't how you're made," says the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become real. It doesn't happen all at once. You become..." And so begins the Velveteen Rabbit's journey towards becoming real--through the love of a child....

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!

    Beautiful story and illustration!

    Old loved story with beautiful new illustrations. I bought 2 because I'm going to donate one of them. I bought the books for an annual Women's dinner at my church.
