I like this one. The bunnies did something. The bunnies ate the garden, some lettuce in McGreggor's garen. I did like it. Then they go back to nap. The end.

Love Beatrix Potter for early readers! I am reading this to my preschool aged son, and it is a welcome change from many of the more modern picture books. It actually introduced him to some new words, which is something I often cannot say about a children's book.

Needlessly violent and pointless.

Summary: This book is a sequel to the Peter Cottontail books. This follows Benjamin Bunny and his cousin Flopsy and their six baby bunnies. They are captured by a human and put in a sack but manage to escape and replace the contents with rotten vegetables.Personal connection: I love the continuation of the Peter Cottontail books and like how cunning the six bunnies were.Class use: Have students draw what they think the bunnies house looks like.

This is a story of Benjamin Bunny little children, who are mostly known as the "Flopsy Bunnies" who went to Mr. McGregor's rubbish heap and found lots of overgrown lettuces. Astound with their find, they decided to eat their fill but ended up sleeping soundly after they are full. Unfortunately for them, they were discovered by Mr. McGregor who puts them in a bag so he could sell them off. Thomasina Tittlemouse comes to the rescue and the bunnies are replace with whatever they could find.I absolutely love the traditional water-colored illustrations depicted in this the pages of this book. The story itself is a wonderful cute tale for children to enjoy as well. The plot is simple but it attracts the kids when you read it to them, with of course a couple of "gasps" moments in between the pages. Otherwise, I'm sure to put this book in the list of books I love to read to my young kids to.

The Flopsy Bunnies fell asleep and were caught by Mr. McGregor, who put them in a sack. Thomasina Tittlemouse chews a hole in the sack, and the bunnies are switched for old garbage. Mr. McGregor gets in trouble when he tells his wife he has bunnies and they find the garbage instead.
