The Tale of Peter Rabbit

Once upon a time, there were four little rabbits named Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail, and Peter.
They lived with their mother under a big tree.

One morning, their mother said, “You can play in the fields, but do not go into Mr. McGregor’s garden. Your father had an accident there, and he never came back.”

The good little rabbits, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail, went to pick berries. But Peter, who was naughty, ran to Mr. McGregor’s garden. He squeezed under the gate and started eating vegetables.

Suddenly, Peter saw Mr. McGregor! He got very scared and ran all over the garden, trying to find the way out. He lost his shoes and his jacket as he ran. Finally, Peter found the gate and escaped, but he was very tired and scared.

When Peter got home, his mother was worried. He had lost his clothes again! That night, Peter had to drink chamomile tea and go to bed early. Meanwhile, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail had bread, milk, and berries for supper.

The End.

O Conto de Peter Rabbit (Tradução)

Era uma vez quatro coelhinhos chamados Flopsy, Mopsy, Rabicó e Pedro.
Eles moravam com a mãe deles debaixo de uma grande árvore.

Uma manhã, a mãe disse: “Vocês podem brincar no campo, mas não entrem no jardim do Sr. McGregor. Seu pai teve um acidente lá e nunca voltou.”

Os coelhinhos bonzinhos, Flopsy, Mopsy e Rabicó, foram colher amoras. Mas Pedro, que era travesso, correu para o jardim do Sr. McGregor. Ele se espremeu por baixo do portão e começou a comer os vegetais.

De repente, Pedro viu o Sr. McGregor! Ele ficou muito assustado e correu por todo o jardim, tentando encontrar a saída. Ele perdeu os sapatos e a jaqueta enquanto corria. Finalmente, Pedro encontrou o portão e escapou, mas estava muito cansado e com medo.

Quando Pedro chegou em casa, sua mãe ficou preocupada. Ele tinha perdido as roupas de novo! Naquela noite, Pedro teve que beber chá de camomila e ir para a cama cedo. Enquanto isso, Flopsy, Mopsy e Rabicó comeram pão, leite e amoras no jantar.

Fim.
