In this story, a brave young rabbit named Benjamin Bunny sets out to rescue his cousin, Peter Rabbit.

"One morning a little rabbit sat on a bank.
He pricked his ears and listened to the trit-trot, trit-trot of a pony.
A gig was coming along the road; it was driven by Mr. McGregor, and beside him sat Mrs. McGregor in her best bonnet."
