Section 2 and 7 are both PL OK.

I can't believe Peter didn't get punished, and Benjamin did.
I assume Benjamin was younger than Peter, which just goes to show an age old adage:
"Never follow an older relative into trouble, you will be the one who gets punished."

May I have section 12, "The Pie and the Pattypan"?

Edit: Whoops, just saw that LaLune asked for that one. May I try then for section 11, "The Roly-Poly Pudding"?

Oh, my favourites are already taken! Never mind, can I have Pigling Bland please? That's a funny one, with a touch of romance!

Also, Phil, I just saw the comma joke in your sig line. I've got another one for you:

My hobbies are cooking my family and pets.
My hobbies are cooking, my family and pets.
Don't be a psycho! Use commas!

And may I take the last section that's still available - Section 9??

Thanks!

HA! Yes, punctuation can indeed save lives. thanks and you may indeed record the funny Pigling Bland.

EDIT: and with that, I suppose I should move this out of the Launch Pad

An entire book completely claimed in 1 day, very impressive.

I am amazed! That is the quickest I've every seen it go, but it seems that everyone, like me, loves Peter Rabbit.

Here's my section 11 recording:

I vividly remember reading this particular tale as a child...Those nasty rats rose in my dreams for a while after that!
