Watch The Velveteen Rabbit

The Velveteen Rabbit sits under the Christmas tree waiting for the little boy to pick it up and play. Other toys get more attention from the little boy because they are more current and are more popular. The Velveteen Rabbit feels neglected and actually sad. Another toy that has been in the child's room for a long time tells the rabbit that there is a chance to come to life for every toy.

The Rabbit becomes encouraged and very curious and listens intently. The other toy tells the rabbit that the child must love it more than all the other ones. Immediately, the Rabbit becomes very discouraged but he is still hopeful that somehow he can accomplish this task.

His chance came one night as the boy begins to search for one of his favorite stuffed animals. He could not find it and gave up. He picks up the precious Velveteen Rabbit and falls in love with it. The Rabbit does not leave his side and becomes the constant companion for the little boy.

The little boy becomes very sick one day and the doctors send him away to recover by the oceanside. The little boy is very sad but the adults give him another new stuffed rabbit. This rabbit is so beautiful the fur is of the finest quality and you can tell that it must have cost quite a bit of money. A decision is made that all the older toys must be destroyed because they may hold the virus the boy has within them. The Velveteen Rabbit is devastated because they may burn him in the fire. A fairy rescues him just in time to turn him into a real little rabbit.
