The Tale of Peter Rabbit

These above are two videos of The Tale of Peter Rabbit story. The videos stayed very close to the original book. The color scheme was the same. And defiantly the story plot was the same too. One thing the video had that the book did not was Peter’s friend Benjamin. Benjamin was not an important character in the videos (he was seen once and mentioned another time). Peter wanted Benjamin to go with him to Mr. McGregor’s garden, but he could not. Another difference was at the end of the book Peter did not turn around or stop until get was home but in the video he stopped in the middle of the woods. I noticed that in both versions Peter was very boy or childlike but during his run in with Mr. McGregor he lost his shoes, lost his jacket, and started to run on all four legs. It seems like Peter turned into a real rabbit when he was being chased and he even acted less boy like. But at the end he turns more boy like. The story has a lesson at the end, just like many Victorian stories.
