Original story and illustrations by A.J.MacGregor, my earliest copy (2nd edition, 1941) states revised but does not have the revised verses by W.Perring.

"Bunnikins Picnic Party is a descriptive verse story about Bunnikin and his brothers and sisters spending a happy day in the woods. Time is forgotten until baby bunny wanders away; all ends well and the weary troop wends its way home in the fading light."

MacGregor starts:

Fluff had a plan, a most marvellous plan,

For a picnic party one day.

So Whiskers, the youngest was sent to enquire

What Mrs. Bunnykins would say.

Perring starts:

Mrs.Bunnikin was darning,

With a stocking in her hand:

In came Bunnikin, her youngest,

Said 'A picnic would be grand!'
