The Velveteen Rabbit: 100th Anniversary Edition
- Description
A Little Book About What It Means to Be Truly Loved
Some children's stories are read once. Others somehow become part of the family.
The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams is very much the latter.
This beautiful 100th Anniversary Edition celebrates one of the world's most treasured children's classics, presented in a keepsake hardback with the enchanting original colour illustrations by William Nicholson.
The story begins when a little Velveteen Rabbit arrives in a child's nursery with one great wish: to become Real. With a little wisdom from the old Skin Horse, he discovers that becoming Real isn't about what you're made from or how beautiful you look. It happens when somebody truly loves you.
Tender, imaginative and quietly profound, it's a story about friendship, kindness and the extraordinary power of being loved — with words that resonate every bit as much with the grown-up doing the reading as the child tucked up beside them.
Beautiful enough to give and timeless enough to keep, this is the sort of book that begins on a nursery bookshelf and somehow stays in the family for years.
Perfect for welcoming a new baby, marking a christening or first birthday, or simply starting a little library of stories worth keeping.
