In this episode of Once Upon a Storytime Podcast, we follow a daring woodland rescue in The Tale of Mr. Tod. When Tommy Brock the badger kidnaps the Flopsy Bunnies and hides them deep inside the home of the unpleasant and sneaky fox, Mr. Tod, it's up to Benjamin Bunny and Peter Rabbit to save them.
As the two friends sneak through the woods and spy on the villains, they find themselves caught in the middle of a comical (and rather grumpy) showdown between the badger and the fox. With clever planning, a bit of luck, and lots of courage, Benjamin and Peter prove that even the smallest heroes can outwit the biggest bullies.
This longer and slightly more suspenseful tale is full of action, bravery, and woodland mischief—perfect for listeners ready for a slightly wilder Beatrix Potter adventure!
