Description

Peter Rabbit: Up and Away by bestselling creators Rachel Bright and Nicola Kinnear brings to life new adventures of the world-famous creation originally by Beatrix Potter.

In this brand new picture book series, Peter Rabbit is being a helpful bunny, looking after Jemima Puddle-duck's eggs on a sunny spring day. When the eggs hatch, Peter must use his inventive brain to teach the little ducklings how to fly. However, when bouncers, spinning hats, and flying jumps don't work, Peter must learn that everyone learns at their own pace.

This mischievous little rabbit has been a favourite character for over 100 years. These new stories celebrate Peter's cheeky nature, adventurous spirit, and never-ending curiosity in a truly modern way.
