Peter Rabbit is full of ideas to get his chores done quickly, playing is much more fun. So when Mrs Rabbit wants him to help with the washing, he has the perfect idea - a super-speedy washing line! It's great fun, until Squirrel Nutkin jumps on too and the pair go head over tail...
This mischievous, little rabbit has been a favourite character for over 100 years and these new stories celebrate Peter's cheeky nature, adventurous spirit and never-ending curiosity in a truly modern way.
Head Over Tail is the first in this new series and is sure to delight Peter Rabbit fans young and old.
