While lacking the amazingly beautifuul pictures from the original series and books by Beatrice Potter which were both written and illustrated by her, this is still the funny story of a rabbit who knows too much for his own good. However I would skip this strange version and buy the original which is still avaliable. This is one instance where updating has done nothing for the original.

Beatrix Potter wrote a beautiful set of little children's books and The Tale of Peter Rabbit is just one of a classic collection. She illustrated her stories beautifully as she brought to life the animal world in a quaint and lovely set of stories. Peter Rabbit was far too mischevious for his own good and this story is a must for all children to own!

The story of a young, gregarious and voracious rodent who can't stop himself from pigging out in a human's vegie garden. Lucky for him, he avoids the usual and deserved case of rabbits when they become pests, and no shotgun pellets for this little critter, as he finally wises up to himself a bit.

That is, until Alan Moore's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen 2, anyway.
