New character emerges
This is a newer version of Peter the Rabbit written by Emma Thompson in 2013. She delightfully adds a Christmas character to interact with the rabbits family. It's a turkey who is VERY proud of his feathers, and suffice it to say is a little gullible. The rabbits come to his rescue in a funny way. It's a delightful story!

Barbara Cooney's art touches the heart
This book consisted of two loves that I have. One, for fine literature as the story is originally based on Chaucer's Nun's Priest tale. Two, Barbara Cooney's art, I truly hold close to my heart. I first found her when I was searching for Maine artists and writers, as Maine is also dear to my heart. She has illustrated over 200 books, I try to find them at thrift stores and church sales, and think of it as a found treasure when I do.
