The Christmas Tale of Peter Rabbit

Peter Rabbit and his cousin Benjamin Bunny have a new friend, William the Turkey. The trio is excited for Christmas--until they realize that William is meant to be Mr. McGregor's Christmas supper! Just in time, Peter and Benjamin hide William, and the three enjoy a lovely Christmas dinner of pickled radishes and barley cake at the Rabbit family burrow.
This story is inspired by a real turkey named William that Emma Thompson met on Beatrix Potter's farm in the Lake District.

Charming tale. I don't know how I ended up reading a children's story— oh right, it's because Dame Emma wrote it— but it warmed my soul, just as a well written and beautifully illustrated story would do to anyone, of any age. ♡♡♡♡♡
