Out Now: The Velveteen Rabbit, illustrated by David Litchfield

Illustrated by David Litchfield and written by Margery Williams, this much-loved children’s classic is now reimagined as a gorgeous picture book for the youngest readers.

The Velveteen Rabbit is the perfect stuffed toy - soft, snuggly and brand new. But he longs to be played with, so he can become Real. After his Boy takes him to bed one night, the pair become inseparable, playing together from dawn to dusk. Rabbit thinks his heart will burst from happiness. This is what being Real must feel like… But when the pair are separated through illness, a magical fairy grants the wish of Rabbit’s heart. Finally transformed into a REAL Rabbit, he finds a new family, but never forgets his special friend - after all, he was always real to the boy.
