Step into Beatrix Potter’s timeless world as we bring to life the classic adventure of Peter Rabbit—the curious, determined little bunny who just can’t resist a forbidden garden.

In this episode, listeners follow Peter as he slips under Mr. McGregor’s gate, feasts on vegetables he shouldn’t touch, and narrowly escapes danger at every turn. From losing his shoes among the cabbages to hiding in a water‑filled can in the tool shed, Peter’s journey is filled with suspense, charm, and gentle lessons about courage, consequences, and coming home.

Perfect for children, families, and anyone who loves classic storytelling, this episode offers a warm, engaging retelling of one of the most beloved tales in children’s literature. Read by Myron Hieronymous Thomas.
