Who remembers The Velveteen Rabbit?
Who remembers the book The Velveteen Rabbit? Maybe you remember reading it to your kids. Maybe you remember someone reading it to you. I’m sure that there are as many people that know about it as there are people that don’t know about it. Turns out, if you’re looking for a great children’s book then now is the perfect time for you to hear this news. I’m so excited about this that I’m submitting it to a weekly roundup of feel good news stories called “Share Some Good Stuff”, hosted at Skeet’s Stuff.
A followup book to the popular Velveteen Rabbit has been released. The title is The Further Adventures of The Velveteen Rabbit. This second book got it’s start when R.W. Elliott expanded on original author Margery Williams’ work by writing for his daughter. This second book will not only contain the new adventures, but it also contains the first book. The awesome thing about this news, which was just announced today, is that for every copy of the book The Further Adventures of the Velveteen Rabbit purchased $1 will be donated to Down Syndrome research. I have a son with Down Syndrome, so I always appreciate seeing stuff like this.
The Velveteen Rabbit’s Further Adventures (ISBN 978-1-60264-062-7) will be available online direct as well as available by order to bookstores. I’m definitely ordering one.

I remember the Velveteen Rabbit from when I was a kid. Good memories.
I’ve always been sadly out of the loop. I had never heard of The Velveteen Rabbit until I got online. It pops up frequently in conversations on message boards and I fell in love with it just like everyone else. I realy need to get this book!
