A children’s book, by Margery Williams Bianco (author of The Velveteen Rabbit). This edition is illustrated by Arthur Rackham. Lovely!
Who doesn't love "Toy Story", with its world peopled by toys, all with their own hopes and fears, happiness and tragedy — and all secret from humans. But this idea did not originate with "Toy Story". Children's books where animals are anthropomorphised are very popular, even classic works such as "The Wind in the Willows", or all Beatrix Potter's stories about animals of the countryside. And there are quite a few classic children's books where it is toys who have been animated. One is the favour...
What's not to love here? Arthur Rackham's illustrations are, as always, enchanting, and Margery Williams, better than anyone else, can fill a toy with life and feeling.
