The Tale of the Pie and the Patty-Pan is a book written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter. It was first published in 1905.
When a little dog named Duchess gets an invitation to tea at the home of Ribby the cat, she becomes dreadfully afraid that Ribby is going to serve her mouse pie. Duchess bakes a delightful veal and ham pie and comes up with a very clever plan to substitute her own pie for Ribby’s. However, their pies become mixed up and Duchess becomes convinced she has eaten a patty-pan.
