- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Oh the many generations brought up on this book - don't forget that lavendar is really rabbit tobacco...
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Though the title says that this is about Benjamin Bunny, it also has a lot to do with Peter Rabbit. Peter is always getting himself into trouble, and that is the case here as well. Benjamin Bunny tries to come and save the day, but things didn't go quite as well as he had planned.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Cute as always
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I been getting kind of down on Beatrix Potter--all the stories seemed more cloying and bland and in love with themselves than I'd remembered--but this one is fun, Potter does Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn, with rabbits.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Interesting continuation of Peter Rabbit. Kinda boring though. Very boring as a stand-alone.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This story of Benjamin Bunny is a classic, of course, and much beloved by our girls. Benjamin and Peter Rabbit get trapped under a basket in Mr McGregor's garden while retrieving Peter's clothing from Mr McGregor's scarecrow.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Benjamin Bunny drags Peter Rabbit through Mr. McGregor’s garden to retrieve his clothes and steal vegetables. Peter is terrified, and the boys have to hide from a cat under a basket. Benjamin’s father rescues them, and both boys are in trouble.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5In which Peter Rabbit is taken back to the McGregors' garden by his cousin. I was amused to see that Peter Rabbit had been traumatised by his previous visit.

OLD MR. BUNNY
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.
