The Tale about this naughty little rabbit's adventures in Mr. McGregor's garden is where it all began. Perhaps her best loved story, The Tale of Peter Rabbit™, was the first of her books to be published, in 1902. It told the unforgettable story of Flopsy Mopsy, Cotton-tail and Peter, which Beatrix Potter originally sent in September 1893 as a 'picture letter' to the son of her former governess, Noel Moore, who was ill. Wind the figurine and watch Peter Rabbit™ gently rotate to the sound of "Mozart's Lullaby."
