Tale of Peter Rabbit / Beatrix Potter
The classic story by Beatrix Potter. When Peter's mother goes to buy bread, she tells the children they may go out as long as they stay out of trouble and Mr. McGregor's garden. Peter's siblings go to the blackberry patch, but Peter runs straight to the forbidden garden to munch some fresh vegetables. When Mr. McGregor catches sight of him, Peter's disobedience has unpleasant consequences.

The classic children’s book, originally published in 1902 in hardcover, is now available in a paperback format—perfect for the youngest readers! The text and illustrations of the classic Tale of Peter Rabbit, loved by children around the world for generations, appear in full. Large, easy-to-read text makes this perfect for storytime and bedtime, and the classic story is sure to be a favorite.
Please note that a brief synopsis of many of the books included here are provided in our Library Builders section. Study guides for the same book are often available from several publishers, so we found it more efficient to give a description of the book only once.
If given a choice, most young readers will choose a book over a "reader" style collection of stories. Why? The stories are interesting, the illustrations engaging, and they seem more "manageable". Okay, so why not teach reading comprehension and beginning literature skills using wonderful children's books? Maybe because you don't want to invest in study guides for each book. Or maybe because you think there needs to be just a little more organized coverage of skills than you might come up with on your own. Or, maybe you just haven't found the right resource. Well, Logos Press has answered all these "maybes" by creating worksheets to go along with some great children's literature. These reproducible worksheets are compiled into spiral bound books and incorporate both the answers and notes for the teacher. Children have seven kinds of questions to answer: matching, multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, drawing a picture, listing, vocabulary definitions, and essay-type. Beginning Literature 1 and 2 includes worksheets for each book plus a sample reading comprehension worksheet that functions as a book report form identifying and describing main characters as well as listing the book's happenings at the beginning, middle, and end. These worksheets provide an excellent introduction to literature studies and reading comprehension by encouraging both thinking about the reading selection and expressing those thoughts in a cohesive manner. A grading label (for reading, English, and spelling) is included on each worksheet. The teacher's instructions include guidelines for grading, and a complete answer key is included.
Worksheets in this guide are for Nice New Neighbors, The Biggest Bear, Ox-Cart Man, A Chair for My Mother, The Emperor's New Clothes, The Little House, The Bears on Hemlock Mountain, Miss Nelson is Missing, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, Dr. DeSoto and The Velveteen Rabbit.
