When Benjamin Bunny goes to visit his cousin Peter Rabbit he finds Peter feeling very sorry for himself, his mother is cross with him for leaving his coat and shoes in Mr McGregor’s garden and now, to make matters worse, Mr McGregor has hung them up as a scarecrow. In 1909, Potter returned with a degree of reluctance – due to wanting to develop other animal characters – to the rabbits that made her name and remained a favourite with her readers. She did so through the character of Benjamin Bunny, in The Tale of The Flopsy Bunnies. In this story, Benjamin has grown up and married Peter's sister Flopsy. Very 'improvident and cheerful', Flopsy and Benjamin have a large family of children called the Flopsy Bunnies. The story opens by introducing the family and the fact that eating lettuces has a sleep-inducing effect on rabbits – illustrated here with the bunnies asleep in a lettuce patch.

Her father Rupert, a qualified barrister, married her mother Helen in 1863. They left their family roots in the industrial Midlands to live in a large house in the exclusive area of South Kensington, London. It was here, at number two Bolton Gardens, that Beatrix Potter was born in July 1866 and raised in an affluent Victorian household complete with maids, cooks, butlers and nursemaids.
