"""Now, my dears,"" said old Mrs Rabbit one morning, ""you may go into the fields or down the lane, but don't go into Mr. McGregor's garden.""Follow the story of naughty Peter Rabbit as he squeezes—predictably—under the gate into Mr. McGregor's garden and finds himself in all kinds of trouble! But how does Peter Rabbit get himself out of this tricky situation? Beatrix Potter's story about one mischievous but ultimately endearing little creature will tell us, accompanied by timeless verses which have transcended generations.The Tale of Peter Rabbit, first published in 1902, is still today one of Beatrix Potter's most popular and well-loved tales. It is the first of the illustrious series that is The World of Beatrix Potter, and a story which has endured retelling after retelling at bedtimes all over the world."

      It's hard to improve on a classic, but Rosemary Leach manages to do just that. Almost everyone knows this story about a rabbit who doesn't listen to his mother and almost gets caught by Farmer McGregor. With her perfect British accent Rosemary Leach brings the story to life in the way we imagine Beatrix Potter saw it: a quiet English countryside of patchwork fields, pastel colors, and friendly animals. Starting out slow and relaxed, Leach's reading speeds up, and her words become more clipped and succinct as Peter gets more and more frightened. Younger children will be entranced by the simple story that combines action, gentle morals, and a satisfying end. W.L.S. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine
