The Velveteen Rabbit: A modern children's picture book adapted from the original story. Featuring Black / African American characters. For ages 3-7.

Paperback (Independently published June 26, 2020)

This book is an adaptation of the classic story by Margery Williams (1881-1944).

This story was originally published in 1922.

I have closely followed the original story, with the majority of the text remaining the same.

It has been shortened in the hope that younger children may be able to enjoy this lovely story.

A perfect bedtime story.



"Growing up as a child all of my favorite books and especially books that are classic and traditional stories did not feature characters that looked like me or my family and friends. I made it part of my mission to recreate a few of these books, hopefully, some young children will feel represented and seen. I have also made a "Twas the night before Christmas" featuring a Black Santa and family. I hope you enjoy these books!" Jayla Joseph.
