Buy The Velveteen Rabbit Reissue by Williams, Margery, Nicholson, William S. (ISBN: 9781944686468) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: Love this book - Love this book had it for my children them my grandchildren it’s now for my great grandchildren Review: Heartbreakingly Real - Someone recomended this book to me a couple of years ago. They had recently found out that I had been self harming for years and had been recently trying to stop. When they asked me why I felt a need to do it, I immediately answered that 'it makes me feel real - I need to feel real'. They told me about this story. After reading it for the first time, I cried. It simultaneously filled me with relief and confusion - I felt empathy towards a toy rabbit, whom I could actually relate to! The illustrations are beautiful and the story is sweet and sad. I now read it to my sixteen month old daughter who points out the rabbit with delight. It is certainly a story that can be read by a variety of people, children and adults. The message it sends out is heart warming to hear. I only wish that I had read it as a child...

Me encantó, aunque es un libro para niños, los grandes que no lo han leído encontrarán en sus escasas páginas una bella historia para comprender lo que el amor puede hacer. Las ilustraciones son buenas, en la versión impresa por supuesto que son mucho mucho mejores.

This book came to my attention, because it was read in my beloved series "Cold Case" by the main character detective Lilly Rush. The book itself is a wonderful story about hope, friendship and love, between a rabbit and his owner, a young boy. Today the story is more topical than ever, it is a story that should be read to children again and again, because it actually conveys basic values.x finger. In today's world, in which children are inundated with the latest electronic toys, which do not stimulate their imagination, a child is told here that it is completely ok to have a cuddly toy, a confidante, or a friend. In every time, one should remember, that children also have problems and fears and that the confidant cuddly toy companion can be a comforting source. I will give this book to my little neighbour as a christmas present. she has a cuddly toy, an owl. I am sure her parents will read it to her with enthusiasm.

I've always loved this story, but this specific edition is breathtaking. The images are so full of emotion that they tell the story all on their own. There is a certain warmth and sadness in the art that perfectly captures what it feels like to be loved and then forgotten. I found myself just staring at the pages, feeling a genuine ache in my heart. The way the Rabbit is drawn makes his journey feel so personal and real. It's a beautiful, soul-stirring book that feels more like a work of art than just a story. If you're sensitive to visual storytelling, this will definitely get to you.

I heard that this book was terrific so I was sad that I hadn't read it to my daughter when she was young, but I bought it anyways as something for future grandchildren (fingers crossed). When I received this book I didn't realize how beautiful it would be and thought it would make a terrific gift for a colleague of mine. I'm actually thinking of gifting this one and getting a cheaper one for myself.
