Line 4:
Peter Rabbit is an [[Civilized Animal|anthropomorphic rabbit]] who lives next door to the (human) farmer, McGregor. His mother's always told him to stay out of Farmer McGregor's garden because Peter's father was killed and eaten there. Of course, Peter foolishly disobeys this advice and sneaks into McGregor's garden to stuff himself on vegetables and get into all sorts of trouble.
''[[The Tale of Peter Rabbit]]'' was published in 1901 and is [[Beatrix Potter]]'s first, and most famous [[Children's Literature|children's book]]. It's now in the public domain in the United States and can be read [http://www.gutenberg.org/files/14838/14838-h/14838-h.htm here].

* [[Carnivore Confusion]]: Rabbits are not only sapient, but they have a society very similar to humans. They wear clothes, use pots and pans, and sleep on rabbit-sized beds. That said, Farmer McGregor bakes Peter's father into a pie.
* [[Civilized Animal]]: Peter and his family, of course. They are very anatomically accurate, but wear clothes and live in well-furnished warrens.
