Notes

The Velveteen Rabbit, written by Margery Williams and published in 1922, is a beloved children's book that tells the story of a toy rabbit who longs to become "Real" through the love of his young owner. In the story, the rabbit learns from an older, wiser toy—the Skin Horse—that toys become real when they are truly loved, even if it makes them shabby and worn. As the boy grows more attached to the Velveteen Rabbit, the toy experiences both the joys and heartaches of love, especially when the boy falls ill, and the rabbit faces the threat of being discarded. Through its gentle and touching narrative, The Velveteen Rabbit explores themes of love, loyalty, and transformation, and has become an enduring classic for its message about the power of unconditional love.
