‘I think I’ll have a sleep too,’ he said to himself when he saw them. Just then Benjamin Bunny came walking by. Once they had finished munching their way through all the lettuces, they snuggled up together in the warm sun and fell asleep.
They were filled with joy by the sight of all the juicy green leaves - and it wasn’t long before they had eaten every single one! There were so many the Flopsy Bunnies couldn’t believe their eyes. When they got there the lettuces had all been dug up and someone had put them on Mr McGregor’s rubbish heap.

Potter died in 1943 and left almost all of her property to The National Trust in order to preserve the beauty of the Lake District as she had known it, protecting it from developers. She became a sheep breeder and farmer while continuing to write and illustrate children's books. In her forties, she married a local solicitor, William Heelis. Potter eventually published 24 children's books, the most recent being The Tale of Kitty-in-Boots (2016), and having become financially independent of her parents, was able to buy a farm in the Lake District, which she extended with other purchases over time. In her thirties, Potter published the highly successful children's book The Tale of Peter Rabbit and became secretly engaged to her publisher, Norman Warne, causing a breach with her parents, who disapproved of his social status. Because she was a woman, her parents discouraged intellectual development, but her study and paintings of fungi led her to be widely respected in the field of mycology. She had numerous pets, and through holidays in Scotland and the Lake District, developed a love of landscape, flora, and fauna, all of which she closely observed and painted. Helen Beatrix Potter was an English author, illustrator, mycologist, and conservationist who is best known for her children's books, which featured animal characters such as Peter Rabbit.īorn into a wealthy household, Potter was educated by governesses and grew up isolated from other children.
