Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

“The beloved tale of the stuffed bunny who becomes real.” —Publishers Weekly
“Among the many toys in the nursery, a stuffed, velveteen rabbit becomes the favorite and well-loved companion of a little boy who receives it in his Christmas stocking… In this timeless classic story, the velveteen rabbit learns the true meaning of what it is to be real.” —Children’s Literature
“Though the fanciful story…continues to resonate in recounting that ever-occurring incidence of a child's beloved toy that is finally abandoned.” —School Library Journal
“Williams’ 1922 classic remains a read-aloud standard thanks to the way big themes of life, death, and change weave through its seemingly small and largely familiar domestic events.” —Kirkus Reviews
