30 Day Book Meme (2014 version) - Day 21

Day 21 – Favorite book from your childhood
2010 Answer: BSC #4 Mary Anne Saves the Day and The Velveteen Rabbit

Still The Velveteen Rabbit.  Despite crying every time I read it.

"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."

 My Velveteen Rabbit is actually a stuffed raccoon, who looks quite good for being 30 plus years old - probably because he spent many of those years either occupying a spot on my bed or in my cedar chest.  He has absorbed many sad tears and kept me company on many lonely nights.

He is Real.
