Description

One Christmas morning, the little Boy receives a sawdust-filled velveteen rabbit. Just another addition to the Boy's already massive collection of toys, Rabbit is quickly forgotten and overlooked. When a stroke of random luck "reunites" the Boy and Rabbit, they quickly become an inseparable pair. The velveteen rabbit finally begins to understand what Skin Horse means when he talks about being "real." Then one day, the Boy comes down with scarlet fever. Happy when the fever breaks and the Boy is well enough to play again, Rabbit, who stayed by the Boy's side all throughout his illness, learns that he must be destroyed. Read to find out the fate of this much-loved rabbit. ~ Enh
