About the book

Margery Williams's The Velveteen Rabbit tells the story of a toy rabbit who longs to become real through the love of a child. As the rabbit becomes the boy's favourite companion, he learns that becoming "real" is not about appearance but about being deeply loved. Gentle and moving, the story explores childhood, attachment, loss and transformation.
