Description
The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher
Beatrix Potter
Jeremy Fisher is a frog that lives in a damp little house amongst the buttercups at the edge of a pond. His larder and back passage are “slippy-sloppy” with water, but he likes getting his feet wet; no one ever scolds and he never catches cold. One day, Jeremy finds it raining and decides to go fishing. Should he catch more than five minnows, he would invite his friends to dinner. He puts on a mackintosh and shiny galoshes, takes his rod and basket, and sets off with “enormous hops” to the place where he keeps his lily-pad boat. He poles to a place he knows is good for minnows.
Once there, the frog sits cross-legged on his lily-pad and arranges his tackle. He has “the dearest little red float”. His rod is a stalk of grass and his line a horsehair. An hour passes without a nibble. He takes a break and lunches on a butterfly sandwich. A water beetle tweaks his toe, causing him to withdraw his legs, and rats rustling about in the rushes force him to seek a safer location.
