THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT
Ⓒ
Once upon a time, Peter Rabbit
lived with his mother and sisters.
One day their mother said,
"When you go outside, never go into
Mr. McGregor's garden. When your
father went there, Mr. McGregor
caught him and put him in a pie."
O Peter's sisters were good rabbits, but Peter was
naughty. He went straight to the garden. He ate
some radishes.
When Peter was looking for parsley, he saw
Mr. McGregor. Peter turned and rushed away.
Mr. McGregor saw him and shouted, "Stop! Stop!"
6 Peter ran and ran. He lost one
shoe among the cabbages and the
other shoe among the potatoes.
Then Peter hid in a watering
5 can. He thought that he was safe.
He was not. Mr. McGregor found
him. Peter jumped out and ran
some more.

At last Peter got home. He
didn't say anything because he was
too tired. His mother wondered,
"What happened?" She didn't ask.
She just put Peter to bed and made
chamomile tea for him.

"Good night, Peter."
