Enjoy children's stories from some of the most celebrated writers in history as well as the delightful, original illustrations.

 

The touching story of The Velveteen Rabbit is a magical tale about the bond between a little boy and his favourite toy animal. It’s a story about the transforming power of love which has been enjoyed by generations since it was first published in 1922.

This Macmillan Collector's Library Edition will be published as a beautiful, cloth-bound hardback with gorgeous, classic illustrations throughout the book. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This anthology is edited by author and critic Nicolette Jones.

The theme of kindness runs through this lovely collection of stories. There’s Kenneth’s Grahame’s Reluctant Dragon, more interested in writing poetry than being fierce, in 'The Land of the Blue Flower' by Frances Hodgson Burnett, a young king encourages his citizens to plant flowers and frosty Aunt Kapp succumbs to the warmth and charm of her family. Many stories in the book are accompanied by delightful illustrations.
