The Tale of Peter Rabbit

Once upon a time there were four little rabbits, and their names were Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail and Peter.

The Tale of Peter Rabbit is the delightful tale of the world's most famous and cheeky rabbit. Original story by Beatrix Potter, with colored illustrations by Virginia Albert. A mischievous, but very lovable bunny always inclined to do as he pleases instead of what he should. A wonderful bedtime tale presented in a refined hardcover edition.

Peter Rabbit and his sisters Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail go out to play while mother is out shopping. There's one place they're not allowed: Mr Macgregor's garden, where Peter's poor father met a sticky end, once upon a time.

However, naughty Peter pays his mother's advice no heed and sneaks under the gate to munch on Mr Macgregor's delicious carrots. Even though Peter makes a hurried escape, his over-full tummy is his final undoing when mother puts him to bed without any dinner and just a cup of chamomile tea.

Beatrix Potter's iconic tale of the naughty rabbit has been a favourite with children and parents ever since it was published in 1902. Potter's charming, expressive rabbits have a timeless charm, and the story of the gentle consequences of disobeying one's parents is as relevant as ever. - Book Trust UK
