Author:Beatrix Potter
It's springtime and all the animals are preparing to celebrate with a spring picnic! Everyone has to bring something to share with their friends, but there's just one small problem . . . Peter Rabbit can't think of ANYTHING to bring.
Everyone else seems to have the perfect gift to share. Will Peter manage to find something in time? Will he stumble upon the best springtime surprise?
A sweet story about sharing, springtime celebrations, and a gentle message about the importance of friends.
This is the fifth title in a new series of stories for the very young set in Peter Rabbit's world. The simple tales mirror important early experiences and emotions of young children through the eyes of Beatrix Potter's most well-loved characters, while Eleanor Taylor's illustrations are filled with charm and humour.
Fleming has really delivered a little something for everyone here . . . There are aliens and evil artefacts, moments of madness and spooky old buildings, walking corpses and all-consuming flames - all the things that give a reader of any age that sickly but strangely delicious urge to shudder. My advice? Grab yourself a bowl of popcorn and a cushion, and read on... if you dare!
