"Little Rabbit," she said, "don't you know who I am?"

The Rabbit looked up at her, and it seemed to him that he had seen her face before, but he couldn't think where.

"I am the nursery magic Fairy," she said. "I take care of all the playthings that the children have loved. When they are old and worn out and the children don't need them any more, then I come and take them away with me and turn them into Real."

"Wasn't I Real before?" asked the little Rabbit.

"You were Real to the Boy," the Fairy said, "because he loved you. Now you shall be Real to every one."

How I loved that book :iconwhistleplz:
I always felt the story had some wonderfully odd quality to it. It's hard for me to explain^^

I remember watching the animated version and it made me so sad to see the toys burned and the rabbit crying. One of the absolute best stories EVER. :]

What? No. I drew this back in 2006 or 2007. Where did you see this calendar?

I found your photo and started searching around for a larger format (I have chosen this to be the theme for my babies room when she is born) I want to hang it poster size as the centerpiece. Anyway, all I could find was this (link above). I actually found it elswhere first [link] . It took me a little while to find that it was yours. I just love it thats all. Thanks!
