内容简介

Amazon.com A stuffed toy rabbit (with real thread whiskers) comes to life in Margery Williams\'s timeless tale of the transformative power of love. Given as a Christmas gift to a young boy， the Velveteen Rabbit lives in the nursery with all of the other toys， waiting for the day when the Boy (as he is called) will choose him as a playmate. In time， the shy Rabbit befriends the tattered Skin Horse， the wisest resident of the nursery， who reveals the goal of all nursery toys: to be made "real" through the love of a human. "\'Real isn\'t how you are made，\' said the Skin Horse. \'It\'s a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long， long time， not just to play with， but REALLY loves you， then you become Real.\'" This sentimental classic--perfect for any child who\'s ever thought that maybe， just maybe， his or her toys have feelings--has been charming children since its first publication in 1922. (A great read-aloud for all ages， but children ages 8 and up can read it on their own.) --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. From Publishers Weekly Quiet， graceful illustrations accentuate the classic tale\'s nostalgic tone. Ages 6-10.
