Journal 8 - The tale of Peter rabbit

        





        Peter rabbit, a naughty rabbit, lived with his mother and sister. One morning, while Mrs. Rabbit were going out, she asked her children not to go into Mr. McGregor’s garden. However, unlike other rabbits picked blackberries, Peter rabbit ran to Mr. McGregor’s garden. After he ate lots of radishes and parsley, he met Mr. McGregor. Peter rabbit was shocked and tried to run away, but he was caught by a net. Then Mr. McGregor tried to trap Peter rabbit, he wriggled out immediately. He jumped into the watering can for a while and then jumped out of the window safely. He ran as fast as he can to flee the garden. After Peter returning home, he got sick. Mrs. Rabbit made him some tea and took care of him.

        Peter Rabbit is familiar with us. I learned this cute little bonny from the packing of cookies in my childhood. When I grew up, I realized that he was from a picture book. What’s more, I was attracted by the picture books of Peter Rabbit because of the author’s warm and light painting style. The series of Peter Rabbit are not serious and didactic; I think it is one of the reasons why Peter Rabbit are so popular for a long time.
