Written in gentle tones, the text resonates with the tender relationship between the boy and his toy rabbit. And, as always, Sakai's sensitive illustrations succeed in an absolute sense in evoking the interior world of the child, with all of its playful energy and poignant solitude. Her depictions of child and rabbit are memorable and may well become part of our collective, cultural memory of Williams' original book. Sakai's text is simpler than Williams', allowing her illustrations to convey much that is left unsaid, making for a fine integrity between word and image.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Board Book\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Enchanted Lion\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/20\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781592701285\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 40\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.70h x 8.80w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/29\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2013 pg. 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2013 pg. 43 - Below Average, With Minor Flaw\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Komako Sakai","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52491354276021,"sku":"9781592701285","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_809feec1-436e-4b55-b737-f625c403befc.jpg?v=1777995893","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-velveteen-rabbit-9781592701285","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
