The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher

The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher

The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher is a book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter. It was first published in 1906.

This book tells the story of a frog who decides to go fishing for minnows for supper. After several misadventures, including being swallowed by a big trout and then spat out again, he gives up and has a dinner of roasted grasshopper with ladybird sauce and salad with his friends, Sir Isaac Newton (a newt), and Alderman Ptolemy Tortoise.

An animated adaptation of the story, shown alongside "The Tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle", was featured on "The World of Peter Rabbit and Friends" in 1993.
