"The Velveteen Rabbit" Review (Spoilers)
The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams
I finally read this. This book is pure. This books understands real in a way nothing else I have ever read does. It is by turns tragic, magical, and beautiful.
The book was written in 1922. As a rule, I don't like books this old. I don't connect with them. Williams found something in 1922 that was Universal and timeless, and the messaging still works in a world entirely absent scarlet fever. The book moved me and it matters. *****.
