    014 The Tale of Mr. Tod

    In which the "little books" of Beatrix Potter doesn't seem so little anymore. Mr. Tod's tale of dubious behavior clocks in at 96 pages long (!) and features a hefty amount of badger slander. Slander, we say -- and the Flopsy Bunnies are on hand to be kidnapped once again.

    011 The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse

    What's worse, a home invasion of bees the size of footstools, or a bee-exterminator who overstays his welcome? Fortunately, thanks to Mrs. Tittlemouse, we don't have to answer these questions ourselves. Eleanor & Brooke read the "Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse," and discuss gorgeous insect illustration, passive-agressive hostess skills, and honey-eating toads.
