The Tale of Ginger and Pickles

by Beatrix Potter

Overview

In the Tale of Ginger and Pickles, a yellow tomcat and a terrier are shopkeepers in a small village. Though the mice customers make Ginger the cat's mouth water and Pickles the dog finds his rabbit shoppers faintly enticing, the two control their impulses and even extend credit to their customers. But how long can this combination last? The fifteenth of Beatrix Potter's 22 charmingly illustrated tales of animals in amusing situations, The Tale of Ginger and Pickles has delighted children and adults alike since its release in 1909.

About the Author

Helen Beatrix Potter (1866-1943) was an English writer, illustrator, scientist, and conservationist. She is best known for her children's books featuring animals, such as the beloved The Tale of Peter Rabbit, which was written as a gift for the son of her former governess. Its success enabled her to commit to writing and illustrating full time, resulting in more than thirty books.

Once upon a time there was a village shop. The name over the window was "Ginger and Pickles".

It was a little small shop just the right size for Dolls - Lucinda and Jane Doll-cook always brought their groceries at Ginger and Pickles.
