The Tale Of Squirrel Nutkin

Beatrix Potter's famous tale of a naughty squirrel who loses his tail is as popular today as it was when it was first published over 100 years ago. Join Nutkin, his brother Twinkleberry, and all his cousins as they traverse to Owl Island to gather nuts. See what happens when Old Brown, the terrifying owl guardian of the island, decides he has had enough of Nutkin's cheekiness. Beatrix Potter is regarded as one of the world's best-loved children's authors. From her first book, 'The Tale of Peter Rabbit,' published in 1902, she created a series of stories around animal characters including Mrs. Tiggy-winkle, Benjamin Bunny, Jemima Puddle-duck, Mr. Jeremy Fisher, and Tom Kitten. Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations are a staple of childhood. The original 23 tales are still published today, with 'The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin' being number two in the series.
