Peter Rabbit's mother has warned her children to stay out of Mr. McGregor's garden. Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-Tail obey, but that rascally Peter Rabbit simply can't resist.

Beatrix Potter (1866 - 1943) was an English writer, illustrator, natural scientist, and conservationist. Her children's stories are loved all around the world. Born into an upper-middle-class household, Potter was educated by governesses and grew up isolated from other children. She had numerous pets and spent holidays in Scotland and the Lake District, developing a love of landscape, flora, and fauna, all of which she closely observed and painted. Enjoy a collection of her stories, recorded in high quality audio.

We seem more interested in pretending to live interesting lives than actually living interesting lives. One hundred years ago, Margery Williams saw the human condition so clearly that her story, The Velveteen Rabbit, has been embraced more with every passing generation.

Then, when he goes to look for parsley to soothe his stomach, Mr. McGregor spots him!
