Velveteen Rabbit

The Velveteen Rabbit tells the story of a shy toy bunny who longs to become "Real." On Christmas, he is gifted to a little boy but is soon forgotten among flashier toys. Only the wise, worn Skin Horse shows him kindness and explains that toys become Real through a child's deep love. Over time, the boy grows to cherish the Rabbit, playing with him and even sleeping beside him. After a serious illness, the Rabbit is nearly discarded, but a magical fairy transforms him into a truly Real rabbit, allowing him to live joyfully among wild bunnies-forever Real.
