When they meet William, the proud turkey, he scoffs at the trivial chores which mark their contribution to Christmas.
He is to play a much more important role….When Peter and Benjamin realise exactly what that role is they come up with a cunning plan to save their farmyard friend!
Peter Rabbit and his cousin Benjamin Bunny have a new friend, William the Turkey. The trio is excited for Christmas--until they realize that William is meant to be Mr. McGregor's Christmas supper! Just in time, Peter and Benjamin hide William, and the three enjoy a lovely Christmas dinner of pickled radishes and barley cake at the Rabbit family burrow.This story is inspired by a real turkey named William that Emma Thompson met on Beatrix Potter's farm in the Lake District.
