Margery Williams’ timeless classic The Velveteen Rabbit is the tender, magical story of a stuffed toy rabbit who longs to become real through the love of a child. Nestled among the other toys in the nursery, the Velveteen Rabbit listens as the wise old Skin Horse explains the mysterious alchemy of love that turns toys into something more.
When he becomes the beloved companion of a young boy, the Rabbit’s journey begins — one of devotion, adventure, loss, and quiet transformation. With gentle prose and heartfelt wisdom, Williams explores childhood, love, and the bittersweet path to becoming truly alive.
Narrated with warmth and intimacy by Stephen Byrne, this cherished tale speaks as much to adults as to children, reminding us that the things we love — and are loved by — shape us in the most lasting ways.
