The Tale of Peter Rabbit

Beatrix Potter’s beloved classic follows Peter Rabbit, a curious little rabbit who ignores his mother’s warning and sneaks into Mr. McGregor’s garden. While his sisters behave and go blackberrying, Peter nibbles too much, loses his shoes and jacket, and is chased through the garden in a frantic scramble to escape. With quick pacing, vivid details, and a satisfying homecoming, this gentle tale shows how curiosity and disobedience can lead to trouble—and why it helps to listen to good advice.
