The Adventures Of Peter Cottontail is a children's book written by Thornton Burgess in 1914 about a rabbit and his funny escapades in the Green Forest. The book combines the fun of a good story with little lessons about wildlife, the environment and being true to one's self. This letterbox can be found in the Briar Patch Conservation Area, home of Peter and many of the other Thornton Burgess animal characters.
