The Tale Of Mr Tod is yet another splendidly done adaptation of an equally wonderful story. For one thing, the animation is like the drawings come to life and the music is, as in every episode, very gentle and melodious. The dialogue is very true to the book and there are some funny moments such as Benjamin's father falling asleep when he's supposed to be watching over the children. As for the story itself, it takes place when Peter Rabbit and Benjamin Bunny have children of their own. Peter and Benjamin ask the latter's father to babysit the bunnies unaware that Mr Tod (a fox) and Tommy Brock (a badger) have been lurking around. Benjamin's father ends up being visited by Brock and when the former falls asleep while talking, the latter carries off the bunnies and meets up with Mr Tod. Meanwhile, Peter and Benjamin team up in order to go and rescue the little ones. Tod and Brock are great villains, the flopsy bunnies are adorable, and it's nice to see Peter and Benjamin again. Another winner.
