Bunny Tales

Beatrix Potter was born in South Kensington, London in 1866. She had two rabbits -- the first was Benjamin, and the second was Peter. "The Tale of Peter Rabbit": Peter Rabbit and his three sisters (Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail) live with their mother under the roots of a large fir tree. Peter, who is an adventurous young bunny, invades the garden of Mr. McGregor. "TheTale of Benjamin Bunny": The book deals with Benjamin and his cousin Peter Rabbit going to Mr McGregor's garden, while he is away, to find the clothes Peter lost in The Tale of Peter Rabbit. "TheTale of the Flopsy Bunnies": When Benjamin Bunny and his children, the "Flopsy Bunnies," go to Mr. McGregor's rubbish heap, they are pleasantly surprised to find it filled with overgrown lettuces. They eat their fill and then fall asleep. When they are found by Mr. McGregor and put in a bag, Thomasina Tittlemouse comes to their rescue.
