  • The Tailor of Gloucester of By Beatrix Potter
    Feb 4 2025

    The Tailor of Gloucester follows the plight of a kind-hearted but impoverished tailor who receives a prestigious commission: to create a magnificent coat (and matching waistcoat) for the Mayor’s wedding day.

    Just when success seems within reach, the weary tailor falls ill and frets he’ll never finish in time. Enter the clever, grateful mice whom the tailor once saved from his cat, Simpkin. While the tailor recuperates, these tiny allies secretly toil by candlelight, stitching intricate buttonholes and adding fine details.

    But a missing twist of silk thread leaves a delicate finishing touch undone.

    With Beatrix Potter’s trademark warmth and whimsy, this charming tale weaves together themes of generosity, gratitude, and the power of small kindnesses—perfect for listeners of all ages.

    *Apologies for mispronouncing Gloucester, which should be pronounced “glaa-ster” vs “glouster”.

  • The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin By Beatrix Potter
    Jan 28 2025

    In this whimsical story, a group of squirrels led by Squirrel Nutkin travel to Owl Island to gather nuts. As part of a polite tradition, the squirrels bring gifts to Old Brown, the island’s resident owl, in exchange for permission to collect nuts. Unlike his companions, the irreverent Squirrel Nutkin refuses to show respect. Instead, he dances around Old Brown and teases him with riddles. Each day, the other squirrels present their gifts, while Nutkin’s taunting continues—until Old Brown finally loses patience. Seizing Nutkin, the owl manages to bite off part of his tail before Nutkin barely escapes.

    This tale highlights the value of courtesy and respect—and the consequences of reckless mischief.

  • The Tale of Peter Rabbit By Beatrix Potter
    Jan 21 2025

    In Beatrix Potter’s classic story, Mrs. Rabbit cautions her children—Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail, and the mischievous Peter—to steer clear of Mr. McGregor’s garden. While his sisters obey, Peter can’t resist temptation and sneaks under the gate to feast on vegetables. When Mr. McGregor spots him, Peter scrambles to escape, losing his tiny jacket and shoes in the process. Eventually, he returns home exhausted, only to be sent to bed by his mother with a dose of chamomile tea instead of the supper his well-behaved sisters enjoy.

    Through Peter’s misadventures, the tale highlights the importance of listening to parental guidance and the consequences of disobedience—all wrapped up in a gentle, whimsical world that has charmed readers for generations.
