The Velveteen Rabbit & Other Classic Children’s Stories

Product description

Enjoy children's stories from some of the most celebrated writers in history accompanied by delightful, original illustrations. This anthology is edited by author and critic Nicolette Jones.

The theme of love and kindness runs through this lovely collection of stories. There's Kenneth Grahame's Reluctant Dragon, more interested in writing poetry than being fierce, and in The Land of the Blue Flower by Frances Hodgson Burnett, a young king encourages his citizens to plant flowers. Written by Margery Williams in 1922, The Velveteen Rabbit is a magical tale about the bond between a little boy and his favourite toy animal. It's a touching story about the transforming power of love that has been enjoyed by generations.

This Macmillan Collector's Library Edition will be published as a beautiful, cloth-bound hardback with gorgeous, classic illustrations throughout the book. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.
