The Tale of...
The Pie and The Patty-Pan
Duchess has been formally invited to join Mrs. Ribston (who loves to throw elegant little party’s for two) for an english tea (or an early dinner as we know it in North America). Duchess is quite pleased with the invitation, although she is very concerned about what is on the menu. Ribby cannot imagine serving anything to her honorable guest that she would not be entirely pleased to eat herself. The only problem is... Ribby is a cat, whereas her guest Duchess, is an elegant little dog with an entirely different appetite.
Duchess cannot fathom offending his gracious albeit furry little host by telling her that mouse is an unpalatable option to a dog. She so wants to enjoy the company of Mrs. Ribby and has devised a brilliant plan. A plan that will allow her to have her favorite pie while enjoying the company of Ribby. Yes, Ribby has no inclination that her canine guest will not be eating the wonderful mouse and bacon pie she has carefully prepared, especially for Duchess.
Join Duchess and Ribby in this captivating animated saga, entitled ‘The Tale of... The Pie & The Patty-Pan, originally written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter, now an elegantly reformatted, revised, animated reading by Linda Jay Ewington.
