Description

The first farm that Beatrix Potter owned, Hill Top, was an old house with many hiding places for the rats and mice against which she waged a constant battle. In The Tale of Samuel Whiskers this farmhouse is Tom Kitten's home and the story tells what happens when Tom accidentally comes upon the rat Samuel Whiskers living in a secret hideout behind the attic walls.
