The Tale of Benjamin Bunny
Videos
The Tale of Benjamin Bunny is a children's book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter, and first published by Frederick Warne & Co. in September 1904. The book is a sequel to The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902), and tells of Peter's return to Mr. McGregor's garden with his cousin Benjamin to retrieve the clothes he lost there during his previous adventure. In Benjamin Bunny, Potter deepened the rabbit universe she created in Peter Rabbit, and, in doing so, suggested the rabbit world was parallel to the human world but complete and sufficient unto itself.
Peter's mother selling "herbs, and rosemary tea, and rabbit-tobacco". The concept was cut from Peter Rabbit; here it suggests a rabbit world, parallel to the human one, and complete unto itself.
