Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don'the matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand."
Marjorie Williams
The Velveteen Rabbit
I think the author was writing from a senior citizen perspective--suddenly feeling old and very loved.
Feeling Hugged,
