Title: Retold version dilutes the original meaning of the book
Product review: I received Patricia Pingry's "retelling" of "The Velveteen Rabbit" as a gift for my baby. Upon reading it I quickly realized that this version modifies the original and dilutes much of its meaning. It eliminates some of the sad and difficult portions of the original story, perhaps to make it more comfortable for parents and children alike. But the result is to soften the book's overall impact. I recommend buying the orignal version by Margery Williams, not this bland "retold" version.
