The Complete Tales: The 23 Original Peter Rabbit Books & 4 Unpublished Works

En savoir plus sur le livre

"I cannot draw you a picture of Peter and Benjamin underneath the basket," writes Beatrix Potter, "because it was quite dark, and because the smell of onions was fearful; it made Peter Rabbit and little Benjamin cry." Potter's beloved animal stories, first published in 1902, have delighted generations of young readers. This deluxe volume compiles all 23 tales and verses in one complete, unabridged edition, featuring both color and black-and-white original illustrations. The stories are arranged in the order of their initial publication, allowing readers to experience them sequentially, from the adventures of Peter Rabbit to those of Little Pig Robinson. Each tale is accompanied by a brief introductory note that connects it to real places, people, or animals, providing historical context. For instance, the story of Peter Rabbit in Mr. McGregor's garden originated in a picture letter to Noel Moore in 1893. In addition to the 23 tales, this edition includes two early narrative picture sequences, "Three Little Mice" and "The Rabbit's Christmas Party," along with two unpublished stories, "The Sly Old Cat" and "The Fox and the Stork." This enchanting collection is destined to be a cherished addition to family bookshelves for generations. (Baby to Preschool)
