It is said that the effect of eating too much chocolate is "soporific".I have never felt sleepy after eating chocolate, but then I am not a lightweight. (The effect is most likely known as "diabetes", however.)I also did not grow up to marry my cousin, which-though possibly legal-is not a sufficient enough gap in the gene pool to stop the potential of a sixth or seventh finger. But Benjamin Bunny doesn't care for all of that. He married his cousin and also probably his sister, as well.Which
Out of the entire Beatrix Potter collection that we have, this is always the one that my kids want us to read. I love the Peter Rabbit stories, theyre like easing yourself into a warm bath with a brew, comforting, cosy and restorative for the soul. I will say however that as much as I love doing Mr McGregors voice one, two, three, four, five seex leetle raahbbits, theyre not generally my top choice for reading aloud. I do however really like how Beatrix Potter rarely dumbs down her language for
Much like the second book in the series this one was a little too dark for me (for me to read it to my daughter). Still a cute tale but 3 stars because it could have been told without the potential skinning and killing.
Great art. Benjamin Bunny is a pappa here and he has little bunnies. They spend a day eating well and sunny when the little bunnies are caught. It was not disturbing to my niece. They do escape and all is well. I enjoyed this little story as did my niece. She wanted to hear another one.
Here we see Benjamin Bunny grown up and married with little bunnies of his own. We get the impression that Benjamin was not quite as industrious as he should have been because he seemed to depend on relatives to help provide for his immediate family.One of these relatives is Peter. Apparently Peter turned out pretty well because in this book he owns his own farm and is prospering. Sometimes he can help Benjamin with extra cabbage, sometimes he has none to spare. Or maybe like all of us, he gets
Starts out as a social commentary on large families who cannot feed kids. I wish Potter had stayed with this... Peter Rabbit's so much cooler than his cousin :)

This review goes for all the bunny-centric Beatrix Potter books, including The Tale of Peter Rabbit, The Tale of Benjamin Bunny, and The Story of a Fierce Bad Rabbit. I'm just attaching it to The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies because I think it has the cutest drawings (leetle behbeh bunneh ears!).You don't realize, when you are a child, how perfect and lifelike Beatrix Potter's illustrations are. That takes adult eyes. Looking at the drawings for these 4 books, I couldn't get over how lifelikeIt is said that the effect of eating too much chocolate is "soporific".I have never felt sleepy after eating chocolate, but then I am not a lightweight.
