Great Monday Give: Velveteen Rabbit

Now, as this is a holiday edition of the Great Monday Give, I'll be extending the drawing for two weeks instead of the usual one. That said, this week's give is a sweet little vintage paperback of one of my all time favorite children's books, The Velveteen Rabbit, the original edition with pictures by William Nicholson. All you have to do to be entered to win is comment on this post before midnight, December 6th, Sunday. A winner will be selected at random and announced the following day.

As for last week's Great Monday Give of a copy of Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel, that treasure goes to Genevieve P. Congrats and simply e-mail me your info to webe(at)soon(dot)com. Thanks and have a great one all!

    I'm in the UK and have been jolted into remembering that I really want a copy of the original version of this book - so thanks for reminding me about it : )

    Love this classic - it is such a simple story and yet so profound on so many levels.
