Synopsis

It's been 110 years since Frederick Warne published Beatrix Potter's very first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, and in celebration, we are delighted to be publishing special editions of her entire body of work. Unlike the traditional little white books, these editions have delightful colourful covers and specially designed endpapers. And to make them extra special, we have included a publisher's note to tell you all about the history of how each book came to be.

Peter Rabbit's cousin, Benjamin Bunny, has been a very popular character since this book's first publication in 1904. In this tale we hear all about his adventures with Peter in Mr. McGregor's vegetable garden, and what happens to them when they meet a cat! Even more frightening is what happens to the two pesky bunnies when Old Mr. Benjamin Bunny finds out what they have been up to!

The Tale of Benjamin Bunny is number four in Beatrix Potter's series of 23 little books.

Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood.

One morning a little rabbit sat on a bank. He pricked his ears and listened to the trit-trot, trit-trot of a pony.

A gig was coming along the road; it was driven by Mr. McGregor, and beside him sat Mrs. McGregor in her best bonnet.
