The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies

Author/Illustrator: Beatrix Potter
Year: 1909
Age Level: 4-8

Plot Summary: Benjamin Bunny and his little bunny family are out trying to find food. Peter Rabbit doesn't have any spare cabbages so they head to the infamous Mr. MacGregor's compost heap to find vegetables. Unfortunately the bunnies eat so much lettuce they fall right to sleep, and when Mr. MacGregor finds them, he has the idea to have bunny for dinner...

Red flags: Mr. MacGregor talks about chopping off bunny heads.

My Rating:A-. How can you not love Beatrix Potter? They're so cute and the stories are charming and funny.
