It''s been 110 years since Frederick Warne published Beatrix
Potter''s very first book, "The Tale of Peter Rabbit", and in
celebration, we are delighted to be publishing special editions of
her entire body of work. Unlike the traditional little white books,
these editions have delightful colourful covers and specially
designed endpapers. And to make them extra special, we have
included a publisher''s note to tell you all about the history of
how each book came to be. When the cupboard is bare at the Flopsy
Bunny''s burrow, the family all have to go in search of food. They
soon find some old lettuces on Mr. McGregor''s rubbish heap, but who
can imagine the horrors that await them as they enjoy a nap after
lunch! Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny are two of Beatrix Potter''s
most popular characters and they are brought together in this
exciting tale of danger and friendship. "The Tale of The Flopsy
Bunnies" is number ten in Beatrix Potter''s series of 23 little
books.
