Margery Williams penned her classic work in 1922, endearing itself to countless young children thanks to the illustrations by William Nicholson. This edition captures the magic of the original edition, carefully recreating the story just as Margery Williams wrote it and including all of Nicholson's illustrations, in full color. While modern printing methods call for some updates to the layout, in the main, this edition is nearly identical to the one that captured the hearts of generation after generation. Carry the tradition to your children and grandchildren and future generations with this carefully reconstructed re-creation of "The Velveteen Rabbit: Or How Toys Become Real."

The Velveteen Rabbit: At Last! At Last! A Quality New Version of the Original 1922 Edition
With over 1,500 reviews posted, there is no need to summarize this classic story again here. What I'd like to do instead is recommend a recent (December 2017) printing that closely mirrors the beloved original 1922 edition. The Velveteen Rabbit was published simultaneously in England and America, and good copies of these first editions sell for thousands of dollars. (See the photo of one of these early editions posted below.) This new version, published by Suzeteo Enterprises, ISBN 978-1-947844-20-9, captures the look and feel of an original copy for a reasonable price. The masterful illustrations by William Nicholson have never been surpassed and add great dignity to Margery Williams's poignant story of the toy Velveteen Rabbit that is made Real through the power of love. I especially encourage adults to read The Velveteen Rabbit again, or for the first time. As with many of the best children's books, it takes on greater meaning later in life. One last point: Amazon continues to group together numerous versions of the same book under one heading. It is essential, if you want your comments to be useful to others, to include detailed publishing information about the edition you are reviewing, including the ISBN number.

Un clásico infantil en inglés
Reproducción muy fina del cuento original de hace un siglo, en inglés, con las letras e ilustraciones de entonces. Ideal para el cuento de la noche a los niños más pequeños, o para el recuerdo de alguna abuelita de habla inglesa; una historia breve, muy tierna.

Not only Chandler Bing's ex's favourite :)
Best read ever. Inspired by Chandler Bing, to be quite honest, and now even recited at one of our friend's wedding, since it's all about love and letting go (but in a good way). This edition is also very beautiful. Highly recommend!
