Cousins Flopsy and Benjamin Bunny are parents of six bunny children called the Flopsy Bunnies. Аs parents of a large family, the couple have a difficult time finding enough food for their offspring. The little bunnies go to Mr. McGregor’s rubbish heap, pleasantly surprised to find it filled with overgrown lettuces. They eat their fill and fall asleep.
When Mr. McGregor finds the sleeping bunnies, he puts them in a bag and sets it aside. Thomasina Tittlemouse comes to the rescue by biting a hole in the bag to release them.
