Tommy Brock (a badger) has stolen Benjamin Bunny's babies and intends to eat them! Shocking premise for a children's tale, not to mention elder abuse. Nature is not always pretty, and Ms. Potter was tired of writing only the pretty stuff. As always, her mingling of human traits and animal characteristics is masterfully done so that you learn much of animal behaviour without feeling that you are being taught. (

If your children love Peter Rabbit, then they will love this one! This book is about rabbit parents losing their rabbit babies because they got stolen right under their noses. Peter Rabbit helps his cousin find and bring back the rabbit babies. This a good story for the whole family! (
