The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck

from Nicholepeterse

This book is a great example of tall tales. This is because of its use of the main character and the way she is able to portray a life lesson. Another reason is that the character is farm animals and can be relatable to students, but with them talking makes the book unrealistic. This book is a go...

Best of the illustrations in the Peter Rabbit series, but the book seemed incomplete, like it was missing a huge chunk (seriously, it's about a a fox and a goose, where is the conflict?).

Cute illustrations- a little wordy, maybe for slightly older children than it first appears.

Yay for Project Gutenberg. Really, though, these stories by Potter can get rather intense. Jemima is an awfully stupid duck, though. One other thing - where's the drake?

Jemima Puddle-Duck is yearning to set her own eggs. She leaves the haven of the farm to find a nesting spot where they won't take her eggs and give them to the hen to hatch. Danger ensues. When Beatrix Potter decides to write a suspenseful tale, she is very good at it! This is one of my favorites.
