Book description
In The Further Tale of Peter Rabbit, a new tale written by
Emma Thompson, Peter's adventures take him beyond the boundaries of Mr
McGregor's garden all the way to Scotland. Here he meets the gentle
giant Finlay McBurney, a distant Scottish relative, and much
entertainment ensues.
Emma Thompson, Oscar-winning actress and screen writer, is a long
time admirer of Beatrix Potter's tales. She has a talent for creating
engaging narratives with a dry humour similar to Potter's own and is
the perfect choice of author for this new Peter Rabbit tale, to be
published 110 years after the original.
Emma was inspired to set the tale in Scotland by her knowledge of
Beatrix's childhood holidays there.
