The Tale of Peter Rabbit

Beatrix Potter · 1902
The Tale of Peter Rabbit
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK

What growth does the reckless curiosity of childhood that crosses forbidden lines bring us?

📝ONGO's Reflection

When I read again of mischievous Peter sneaking into Mr. McGregor's garden to steal carrots and his nerve-racking escape, the thrilling delight of childhood transgression came back to life in me. Peter, ignoring his mother's warning and plunging into danger out of curiosity, mirrors the childhood of us all, learning by breaking the rules and colliding with the world ourselves. It is a tale where the comfort of a warm cup of chamomile tea, sipped after returning home from a taste of the frightening world's bitterness, comes touchingly to the heart.
