The Adventures of Peter Cottontail by Thornton W. Burgess

"The Adventures of Peter Cottontail" by Thornton W. Burgess is a children's book published in 1914. Peter Rabbit, dissatisfied with his ordinary name, decides to reinvent himself as Peter Cottontail, hoping the fancier name will make him seem more important. He begins putting on airs to match his new identity, but his friends' teasing soon makes him reconsider. Through twenty-six chapters of woodland adventures, Peter learns a valuable lesson about the importance of staying true to oneself and embracing who you really are.
