Geocache Description:

The Tale of the Pie and the Patty-Pan originally, The Pie and the Patty-Pan (1905) is a children's book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter and published by Frederick Warne & Co.


Plot:

Ribby, a "Pussy-cat" invites a little dog called Duchess to tea with plans to serve her something so very very nice baked in a pie dish with a pink rim. Ribby promises Duchess she shall have the entree entirely to herself. Duchess accepts the invitation but hopes she will not be served mouse. "I really couldn't, couldn't eat mouse pie. And I shall have to eat it, because it is a party." Duchess has prepared a ham and veal pie in a pink-rimmed dish (just like Ribby's dish), and would much rather eat her own pie. "It is all ready to put into the oven," she says, "Such a lovely pie-crust; and I put in a little tin patty-pan to hold up the crust." She reads the invitation again and realizes she will have the opportunity to switch the pies when Ribby leaves on an errand. Complications arise when Duchess tries to replace Ribby's mouse pie with her own veal and ham pie, and then believes she has swallowed a small tin pastry form called a patty-pan. Its themes are etiquette and social relations in a small town.

Container:
