Translated by Victorine Ballon
Histoire de Pierre Lapin, published in 1921 by Beatrix Potter, is a classic children's book that follows the mischievous adventures of a young rabbit named Pierre. Disobeying his mother's warnings, Pierre ventures into Mr. Mac Gregor's garden, where he encounters various challenges, including a frantic chase. The story explores themes of curiosity, disobedience, and the consequences of adventurous choices, all set in a whimsical world of anthropomorphic animals. This French edition is translated from the original English by Victorine Ballon and Julienne Profichet.
