Bertie's Escapade by Ernest H. Shepard, Kenneth Grahame

This has the same adorable dialogue as The Wind In The Willows and would be a good pre-reader to see if your kid is ready for the longer work.

I'll never listen to animals making din outside my window again without wondering if they're trying to sing me a Christmas carol or something.

This was a short story about Christmas shenanigans. I wish it had been a touch more Christmassy. It seems more like a winter story than one centered specifically around Christmas. I liked Bertie, who reminded me of a more reasonable Toad. Why was one of the rabbits names Peter and the other Benjie, which scans as Bertie if you're speed reading? A cute story I'm glad was illustrated.
