The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Wiliams

Some stories stay with us not because we read them as children, but because they continue to speak to us as adults. Margery Williams’s The Velveteen Rabbit is one of those rare works that bridges generations with grace. For our bedtime‑style adaptation on The Radio Reading Room, we leaned into the story’s quiet warmth. It’s a gentle reminder—for children and adults alike—that becoming Real is less about how we look and more about how we love. Read by Myron Hieronymous Thomas.
