I still have that tiny Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter picture book (now falling apart) from my childhood.
(Of course, I think I called him Peter Cottontail. They are the same, aren’t they???)
It’s one of the earliest books that I remember reading and loving.
So, you can imagine my . . . ahem, hesitancy when I heard that they were doing a Peter Rabbit movie.
I mean, how could they possibly improve upon that beloved little rabbit in the blue coat?
Well, I’ve only seen a preview of the movie so I reserve the right to full judgment later, but The Tale of Peter Rabbit movie trailer looks funny and fantastic!
