Description:  Margery Williams' beautiful story of a toy rabbit who becomes real through his love of the child that owns him. Originally looked down upon by more expensive toys, the velveteen rabbit becomes the boy's constant companion. One day, the boy falls ill with scarlet fever, and all of his possessions, the rabbit included, are to be burned. When the toy sheds a real tear, however, a magical fairy appears and transforms him into a real rabbit, at last.
