Such a delightfully sweet story!Whoof. One of the more...not precisely bloody, but certainly perilous of Potter's stories. While foraging in the McGregor garbage heap, the young Flopsy Bunnies fall asleep and are snatched up by the farmer. He intends to kill and skin them, but their father, Benjamin Bunny, manages to get help and save them in good time, and the only damage is one of the bunnies getting smacked with a root vegetable.

In fact, sometimes I just looked at the pictures because I loved them so much. One of my favourites from the collection has to be The Tale of The Flopsy Bunnies. This is a story of Benjamin Bunnys children. They venture into
