Grab The Velveteen Rabbit Drafted By Margery Williams Bianco Viewable As Hardcover

terrific book, even as an adult, but it gave me quite a scare as a little kid, See, I actually managed to get scarlet fever in the first grade, and because of The Velveteen Rabbit, I was terrified that someone was going to come in and force me to burn all of my toys like the kid in the book had to when he was sick.
Thankfully, though, medicine advanced beyond toy burning in between the publishing of this book and, so my G, I. Joes were safe. The Velveteen Rabbit or How Toys Become Real by Margery Williams Biancowas originally published inwhen she wasyears old.


Tonight is my first time to read this book, Shame on me. It only tookmins to read it and at first I was totally not impressed, I thought I already saw the theme of previouslycherished toys being discarded either in favor of a newer or more hitech toy or when the child becomes an adult used in Disney/Pixar's movie Toy Story.
I also thought I already read about the realization of growing old or passing of time used poignantly in E.
B. White's Charlotte's Web, However, check the years. Toy Storywas shown inand Charlotte's Web was first published in, Hence, unless there were other children's books with the same themes earlier than, The Velveteen Rabbit was the original.


The story is very simple yet it strikes a chord in one's heart, It is about a stuff rabbit toy given to a boy on Christmas Day, Along with other hitech and shiny gifts, the little rabbit toy is not a big hit so he is kept in the boy's cabinet.
One of them is an old wooden horse who tells the little rabbit that the latter can become real only when he is loved.
One night, the boy's nanny cannot find her ward's bed companion toy so she gets the little rabbit, They seem to click so from then on, the boy sleeps with the little rabbit and brings him anywhere he goes.
Being a stuff toy, the little rabbit has wear and tear: his color is fading, his hayfilled body is becoming out of shape, he is starting to lose his whiskers, etc.
Despite those, the boy still loves him and this makes the little rabbit very happy, However, the boy gets sick with scarlet fever and the doctor orders the boy's parents to burn all his toys.


If you check Wikipedia, the vaccine for scarlet fever was only discovered intwo years after the first publication of Velveteen.
Then in, the vaccine was eclipsed by the discovery of penicillin, So, the burning of the toys inwas a sensible order from the doctor,

I am not saying though that this book is better than J, M. Barrie's Peter Panor Antoine de SaintExupery's Le Petite Princeor even A, A. Milne's Winnie The Pooh, These three novels are far more comprehensive, multilayered, imaginative and their characters are more memorable, However, the simplicity of The Velveteen Rabbit is its most endearing asset, The vulnerable and trusting little rabbit is much more endearing than the cockiness of Peter, the wisdom of the Little Prince and the cluelessness of Winnie.


Don't read the part below if you are not my brother:

To my brother who always likes to check if a novel has an allusion to sex, check this book out.
The little rabbit is told that being worn out is the consequence of being loved, It does not matter if the little rabbit, because the boy loves him, later becomes out of shape, with faded color, loses its luster, with missing whiskers, etc because he is loved by the boy.
Maybe Williams anticipated readers like my brother so she made both characters, the boy and the rabbit, as male ha ha.

دیشب این قسمت فرندز رو می دیدم که جزء قسمت های مورد علاقه مه. کنجکاو شدم ببینم این خرگوش مخملی چیه که کتاب مورد علاقۀ چندلر بوده. گشتم و کتاب انگلیسی رو پیدا کردم. امروز هم فارسیش رو پیدا کردم و خوندم.

تا اواسط داستان خیلی عالی پیش می رفت.
تا جایی که خرگوش مخملی در طول بیماری کنار پسرک می مونه ولی درست به خاطر همین ایثارش می خوان بسوزوننش چون کنار پسرک مونده و آلوده به ویروس شده.
اما بعد داستان به شکل عجیبی افت می کنه و یه دفعه شبیه داستان های هانس کریستین اندرسن میشه. از جایی که از اشک خرگوش یه گل در میاد و از گل یه پری بیرون میاد و
انگار نویسنده توی دقیقۀ نود خواسته فضای تیره و تاریک داستان رو تغییر بده و راه دیگه ای نداشته جز این که یه عنصر نامتجانس بیرونی پری رو وارد داستان کنه.
