The Tale of Peter Rabbit By Beatrix Potter (Read Aloud)
In Beatrix Potter’s classic story, Mrs. Rabbit cautions her children—Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail, and the mischievous Peter—to steer clear of Mr. McGregor’s garden. While his sisters obey, Peter can’t resist temptation and sneaks under the gate to feast on vegetables. When Mr. McGregor spots him, Peter scrambles to escape, losing his tiny jacket and shoes in the process. Eventually, he returns home exhausted, only to be sent to bed by his mother with a dose of chamomile tea instead of the supper his well-behaved sisters enjoy. Through Peter’s misadventures, the tale highlights the importance of listening to parental guidance and the consequences of disobedience—all wrapped up in a gentle, whimsical world that has charmed readers for generations.
