"The Tale of Tom Kitten" by Beatrix Potter is a children's book published in 1907. When Mrs. Tabitha Twitchit prepares to host a tea party, she carefully washes and dresses her three kittens—Mittens, Tom Kitten, and Moppet—warning them to stay clean. But moments later, the mischievous trio has soiled and lost their clothes while romping through the garden. Their affronted mother must devise a quick cover story for her guests, yet the kittens' antics threaten to disrupt the party's dignity from above. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
