Today's Little Golden Book is The Velveteen Rabbit, adapted from the story by Margery Williams and illustrated by Judith Sutton and published in 1992.
I have never read the story of the Velveteen Rabbit, but could not resist picking it up when I found it at a local thrift shop for just 25 cents. When I flipped though it, this one page stuck out to me. Is it just me or does this scene look like something out of a horror flick?! A couple of clowns, an evil looking flying lion, and one of those mechanical drummer monkeys. The rabbit looks absolutely frozen in fear... or is it just me?
I'm searching for any version of the Velveteen Rabbit that has a picture of the doctor in it. I know, strange. Kid likes books with doctors in them. Everytime we read our version of Velveteen Rabbit, she (2-year-old) aks where the doctor is...
