Beatrix Potter was a very private person, yet, luckily for us, she was a prolific letter writer. Through her own words to friends, working colleagues and children we can discover the observant, energetic, affectionate and humorous personality she kept hidden from her public. Her life covers a period of immense social change. The restricted existence of a dutiful Victorian daughter, the background against which she first wrote the story of Peter Rabbit, was very different from that of war-time England where she continued to pioneer countryside conservation until her death.

For this series she used local animals and events as her inspiration, and even wrote herself into a few of her books. Born into a privileged household, Potter was educated by governesses and grew up isolated from other children. She had numerous pets and spent holidays in Scotland and the Lake District, developing a love of landscape, flora, and fauna, all of which she closely observed and painted. Though Potter was typical of women of her generation in having limited opportunities for higher education, her study and watercolours of fungi led to her being widely respected in the field of mycology (the study of fungi). In her thirties, Potter self-published the first of her highly successful children's books, The Tale of Peter Rabbit. Thereafter Potter began writing and illustrating children's books full-time. Fifteen of which are reproduced here in all their glorious colour. In all Potter wrote about 30 books; the best known being her 23 children's tales. With the proceeds from the books and a legacy from an aunt, in 1905 Potter bought Hill Top Farm in Near Sawrey, a village in England’s Lake District. She died of pneumonia and heart disease on 22 December 1943 at her home in Near Sawrey at the age of 77, leaving almost all her property to the National Trust. She is credited with preserving much of the land that now constitutes the Lake District National Park. Potter's books continue to sell throughout the world in many languages with her stories being retold in song, film, ballet, and animation, and her life depicted television and feature films. ================ KEYWORDS: Peter Rabbit, Friends, Beatrix Potter, children’s stories, lake district, England, bedtime stories, mischievous, animals, Flopsy, Mopsy, Peter, Cotton-tail, Mr McGregor, Mrs. Rabbit, Farmer Potatoes, blackberries, naughty, French beans, radish, parsley, cucumber, 'Stop thief, run, fast, watering can, cabbages, robins, lost, sneeze, jump, dash, vegetable garden, cat, fish, outside, free, home, hoe, gate, scarecrow, camomile tea, bread, milk, blackberries, sleep, hide, Tale of Peter Rabbit, Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, Tailor of Gloucester, Tale of Benjamin Bunny, Tale of Two Bad Mice, Tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle, Tale of the Pie and the Patty-Pan, Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher, Story of a Fierce Bad Rabbit, Story of Miss Moppet, Tale of Tom Kitten, Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck, Tale of Samuel Whiskers, Roly-Poly Pudding, Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies, Tale of Johnny Town-Mouse, disobedience, behavior, behaviour, childhood, child,
Benjamin Bunny, the cousin of Peter Rabbit, was inspired in a real rabbit, the first that belonged to Beatrix Potter. “He is an abject coward”, she wrote, “but believes in bluster, could stare our old dog out of countenance, chase a cat that has turned tail.” He was also a very handsome rabbit. This book contains many views of Fawe Park, in the Lake District, that Beatrix Potter sketched while on holiday. It was first published in 1904. • All original illustrations remastered and digitally enhanced.

There was once a little girl who loved to draw and paint. Her name was Beatrix Potter. Although she lived in Victorian London, her heart was in the countryside, and her many pets were real friends. One of them, a rabbit called Peter, became as famous as his owner. Beatrix wrote about him in The Tale of Peter Rabbit. This book tells the fascinating story of how Beatrix became an author and made her life at last in the countryside she loved.
The beautiful, cloth-bound and embroidered limited edition of Beatrix Potter's Complete Talesis a fabulous collector's piece. The design is inspired by Beatrix Potter's love of textiles and embroidery. Her grandfather had owned a calico printing firm, called the Dinting Vale Printworks, and been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society for his innovative printing techniques. Beatrix had therefore grown up with an understanding and appreciation of good textile design. In the early 20th century, when her publisher Frederick Warne & Co., was planning deluxe editions of The Tailor of Gloucesterand The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin,Beatrix insisted that the cloth bindings should be 'distinctly different and pretty'. The unusual flower-printed cloth that was finally used on these books actually came from her grandfather's printing works at her suggestion. The Tailor of Gloucesterdemonstrates how Beatrix revelled in beautiful textiles; the exquisite paintings in this book of intricately embroidered clothes, copied from eighteenth-century examples in a museum, are amongst her finest work.
