Peter Rabbit Puts on Airs Thornton Burgess

PETER RABBIT PUTS ON AIRS: ILLUSTRATED EDITION BY THORNTON BURGESS Peter Rabbit, so unhappy at his plain-sounding name, briefly changed his name to Peter Cottontail because he felt it made him sound more important. He began putting on airs to live up to his important-sounding name, but after much teasing from his friends, soon returned to his original name, because, as he put it, "There's nothing like the old name after all." A short but adorable story by Naturalist Thornton Burgess with illustrations by Harrison Cady make this an ideal bedtime adventure. For a new generation of young readers and for little hands to hold and to love. Recommended by The Gunston Trust For Nonviolence of Children's Literature. Ages 3-8+Look for the Gunston Bunnies!!
