Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who did Benjamin see at the start of the story?

Answer: Mr and Mrs McGregor

Benjamin saw Mr and Mrs McGregor driving away in a carriage called a 'gig', drawn by a pony. He then went to visit his aunt, Mrs Rabbit, and cousins, one of whom was called Peter Rabbit.
2. What was Peter wearing when Benjamin first saw him?

Answer: A big handkerchief

Peter had left his clothes in Mr McGregor's garden the day before. His mother did not have any others for him to wear so wrapped him in a big red handkerchief. Peter looked rather unwell when Benjamin saw him.
3. Where did Benjamin and Peter first see Peter's coat and shoes?

Answer: On a scarecrow

When Benjamin and Peter got to Mr McGregor's garden, they saw Peter's abandoned clothes had been put on a scarecrow. When Peter got them down and put them on, he found his coat had shrunk when it had rained and his shoes had water inside them.
4. What did Benjamin suggest they collect in the garden?

Answer: Onions

Once Peter had dressed, Benjamin thought they should pick up some onions and wrap them in the handkerchief to take away. Peter was very nervous while they were collecting the onions but Benjamin was quite relaxed.
5. Why did Benjamin regularly go to the garden to get lettuces?

Answer: To eat for Sunday dinner

Benjamin's father was also called Benjamin Bunny. The two of them used to collect lettuces from Mr McGregor's garden for their Sunday dinner. Benjamin ate a lettuce leaf while they were collecting the onions.
6. Which animals did Benjamin and Peter see as they were walking along some planks?

Answer: Mice

The mice were on their doorsteps at the bottom of a red brick wall in the garden. They were busy cracking cherry-stones, but winked at Benjamin and Peter as they walked past.
7. Where did Benjamin and Peter hide from the cat?

Answer: Under an upturned basket

Luckily the two young rabbits saw the cat before it saw them. Benjamin very quickly got both of them and the handkerchief full of onions under a big upturned basket to hide.
8. For how long did the cat trap Benjamin and Peter?

Answer: Five hours

The cat went and sat on top of the upturned basked that the rabbits were hiding in, and stayed there for five hours. Benjamin and Peter both cried because it was dark and the onions smelled very strongly.
9. Who rescued Benjamin and Peter?

Answer: Benjamin's father

Benjamin's father came to look for his son and saw the cat. He jumped on it and kicked it off the basket and into a greenhouse. Then he locked the door so the cat could not get out again while the rabbits left the garden.
10. What did Benjamin's aunt do with her presents?

Answer: Hung them from the ceiling

Benjamin and Peter gave the onions they had collected to Mrs Rabbit as a present. Peter and his sister folded up the big handkerchief while his mother strung the onions and hung them from the kitchen ceiling.
