Description
Follow the exciting and whimsical adventures of Peter Rabbit and some of his most famous feathery, furry, and froggy friends!
This colossal volume features all four original stories featuring the famous bunny, including The Tale of Peter Rabbit, The Tale of Benjamin Bunny, The Tale of Mr. Tod, and The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies, as well as some of Potter's lesser-known but equally charming yarns, including The Tale of Tom Kitten, The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck, The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher, The Tailor of Gloucester, and The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin.
The basis for countless television shows, films, and spin-offs, Peter Rabbit has been hailed as one of the bestselling stories of all time. The original story features a young rebellious rabbit who, despite his mother's wishes, enters the dangerous garden of Mr. McGregor to feast on its endless bounty. From there on out, he gets himself into all kinds of trouble and learns a valuable lesson.
