=== This book provides examples of the following tropes: ===
* [[Aerith and Bob]]: "Once upon a time there were four little Rabbits, and their names were— Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail, and Peter."
* [[Beast Fable]]: Listen to your parents, kids. The dangerous strangers they tell you to stay away from are ''actually dangerous''.▼
* [[Black Comedy]]:
{{quote| 'Now my dears,' said old Mrs. Rabbit one morning, 'you may go into the fields or down the lane, but don't go into Mr. McGregor's garden: your Father [[Never Say "Die"|had an accident there]]; [[Angst? What Angst?|he was put in a pie by Mrs. McGregor]].' }}
▲* [[Beast Fable]]: Listen to your parents, kids. The dangerous strangers they tell you to stay away from are ''actually dangerous''.
* [[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.
