About Beatrix Potter

British author and artist Beatrix Potter wrote and illustrated many children's books in the late nineteenth century. She is best known for her enchanting tales and endearing drawings of woodland creatures in human clothes, most notably Peter Rabbit. Her stories are simple and direct; it was important to Potter to not "write down" to the young listener or reader. Her beloved classic stories remain popular throughout the world today.

Potter was born on July 28, 1866, in Kensington, London, to a wealthy Victorian family. She was educated by governesses who encouraged her to write and who taught her art and music. When she was twenty-seven, she drew a picture and wrote a story for a sick friend about four little rabbits. Nine years later, the now-classic story "The Tale of Peter Rabbit" was published, and it became an overnight success.

Potter's literary work diminished after 1918 because her eyesight deteriorated. She devoted her last thirty years to raising Herdwick sheep and investing in real estate. Potter was the first president of the Herdwick Sheepbreeders' Association, which still exists today. Potter died on December 22, 1943, in Lancashire. She bequeathed fourteen farms, including Hill Top Farm, the setting of several of her books, and 4,000 acres to the British National Trust.

Asjalik ja armas raamat õhtujuttudeks. Jagub täpselt 25 päevaks alates esimesest detsembrist. Lugu sellest, kuidas jänkupere naudib talve ja valmistub koos teiste metsa- ja taluelanikega jõuludeks. Lugudest käivad läbi Beatrix Potteri teada tuntud tegelased.......more

"Най-хубавото беше, че Питър беше заедно със семейството си. Това беше най-хубавата Коледа в живота му! " Тази книга е страхотно споделено преживяване между дете и родител, а и между всички родители, които четем по една глава на ден до Коледа на децата си. Ще се опитам да я превърна в традиция!......more

Goodreads review by Hwee on November 13, 2021

Here’s one for all the Beatrix Potter fans — a gorgeous illustrated hardcover book that you and your young reader could follow together, a story a day. There’s a very distinctly classic vibe to these new tales centering around Peter Rabbit, Benjamin Bunny and their families. They continue to scamper......more

Goodreads review by Nicola on November 13, 2023

Okay so I’ll hold my hands up and say I am not a child (a big one maybe) but I have a special place in my heart for Peter rabbit. And it’s Christmas so I embraced my inner child and relived the magic of my favourite fictional rabbit! Love the sprinkling of Christmas in this as we mark each day of De......more
