One snowy afternoon Peter Rabbit leaves home to collect firewood for his mother. Little does he know that this is the start of an exciting adventure in the heart of the wintery forest

A Winter’s Tale is an enchanting story that is perfect for Christmas. Based on Beatrix Potter’s original characters and illustrations, the story is inspired by the Tale of Mr. Tod, who is a most troublesome and ‘disagreeable’ fox.

The text and festive illustrations, which evoke Beatrix Potter’s original paintings for Christmas cards, tell the story of the escape Mrs Tittlemouse’s children from the clutches of Mr. Tod and Tommy Brock with the help of Peter Rabbit and his cousin Benjamin.

Throughout the book, there are ten interactive envelopes containing twinkling ‘snowflake’ decorations to dress a Christmas tree, which is revealed on the final page of the book. This delicate shimmering pop-up tree can be displayed in a child’s room during the festive period.

‘…above them in the snowy forest, the wind had dropped, and the fir-tree stood tall and
strong and calm. Sparkling in the silver moonlight on this magical winter’s night…’
