Beatrix Potter Will Never Go Out of Style

Purchased this little board book as an Easter gift for my niece. It would be an appropriate gift any time of the year, but it was perfect for Easter. Beatrix Potter tales are so delightful!

I purchased this for my SDC teacher who wanted it (on my credit card). His copy had been borrowed permanently by a former student. Teacher-Librarian

Rabbits Rule!

Though the subtle watercolors attract my baby less than some of the brighter illustrations in other books, the realistic depiction of animals is fantastic as I'd like her to recognize actual animals rather than pink elephants, etc. And it's a classic story that I'm glad she'll grow up with.

Great illustrations, but not as easy to use as the original

My 18-month old loved the original book in the 80s (loved it too much so that some of the pulls no longer worked). This book is very nice and has great images/interactive pulls and pop-ups, but I found the folding pages to be a little tough to manage for toddlers. Overall a great classic beautifully illustrated!

Kat's Kind Review

The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter was an excellent book. I would recommend it to people of all ages even though it was s targeted towards younger children. The book was about four little rabbits that all wanted to go down the lane or into the fields. The only place that they were not allowed to go was Mr. McGregor's garden. Flopsy, Mopsy and Cottontail were good little bunnies and went down the lane to the field. But Peter was very mischievous. He went to Mr. McGregor's garden!! When he got into the garden he saw the best sight of his life. There was food galore! He started to eat and eat and eat. He couldn't stop. Then Mr. McGregor found him and chased him through the garden! Peter had many obstacles that stood in his way! Did he make it out safe? Read the book and you will find out.
