The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin
First published in 1903.
In 1901, while holidaying near Derwentwater in the Lake District, Beatrix
wrote a letter to Norah Moore, sister of Noel, describing the squirrels she
saw daily. This letter eventually developed into the story of the cheeky
squirrel, who dared to tease 'Old Brown' the owl, living on an island in
the lake.
Narrated by Vivian Leigh.
Story dramatized with music, songs and full cast.
