The Tale of Peter Rabbit

When Mrs. Rabbit begs her four furry children to stay away from Mr. McGregor’s garden, the impish Peter Rabbit naturally takes this as an open invitation to create mischief. But when he is spotted by the farmer himself, the chase is on! A century after it was first published, Beatrix Potter’s beloved tale of a certain naughty bunny with a taste for radishes continues to enchant readers. Using Potter’s original text, popular illustrator Michael Hague has made Peter’s world bigger and brighter than ever, bringing this cherished tale to a new generation of youngsters, in a larger format that will delight mischievous bunnies young and old.

PlainTales Comments: Many people think the original illustrations by Beatrix Potter are hard to top, and generally that’s true, but Michael Hague does an excellent job with his illustration of the tale. Unlike many illustrated classics for this age the story is unabridged just like the PlainTales version found in The Tailor of Gloucester and Other Tales by Beatrix Potter.
