The Tale of Benjamin Bunny (Peter Rabbit Tales)

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. As soon as they had passed little Benjamin Bunny slid down into the road and set off--with a hop skip and a jump--to call upon his relations who lived in the wood at the back of Mr. McGregors garden.Beatrix Potter was an English author illustrator and natural scientist.
