It is meant to have the illustrated book with it
Soothingly read by Samuel West, but the narration is meant to go with the illustrated book. Lovely to have Sam West reading it if you have the book - otherwise it would be very frustrating for a child not to be able to see the pictures.

Extremely short book.
It references for you to look at pictures in the book so I don't think this works very well as an audio book but the story was sweet and simple.

The way the author captured the love that a child has for their special comforting toy.
A lovely explanation of life, death & beyond for a young child, through the eyes of the velveteen rabbit.

A dated, gentle story
This is a classic which is starting to show its age, rather like the worn velveteen rabbit himself. A very gentle story with bags of imagination about the secret life of toys, suitable for young children (though some references might need to be explained). Samuel West, as always, does a wonderful job with his skilful and emotive narration. The story itself lasts for 28 minutes, including the frequent over-loud but pleasant musical intervals.
The remainder is a reading of the modern addendum from a printed version of the book, including discussion of the original 1922 drawings which are presumably included in the picturebook version. So this second section isn't so successful - though it does include a rather delightful song about old toys sung by the talented West.
