Christmas a boy got a stuffed Velveteen Rabbit in his stocking.
He liked it but played with the other gifts more. The boy forgot
about the rabbit. The rabbit was very sad. The horse told
the rabbit that a toy becomes real when a child loves it. The rabbit
wanted to be real.
One night the boy couldn't find his favorite toy so he slept with the rabbit. The rabbit became his favorite toy. They did everything together. The boy loved the rabbit very much.
The boy became very sick. The doctor said that all of his toys had to been thrown away. The rabbit and all the others toy were taken outside to the trash. The rabbit was crying he missed the boy. A fairy appeared and made the rabbit real. Later the real rabbit went back the see the boy playing in the woods.
