# The Story of Miss Moppet

By Beatrix Potter.

"The Story of Miss Moppet" by Beatrix Potter is a children's story written and illustrated for the 1906 Christmas season. This tale of teasing features a kitten named Miss Moppet and a clever mouse engaged in a game of cat-and-mouse. When Miss Moppet bumps her head while chasing the mouse, she devises a cunning plan, wrapping herself in a duster and pretending to be ill. The curious mouse creeps closer—but who will outsmart whom in this playful battle of wits? (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
