A concise new life of the creator of Peter Rabbit and Pigling Bland illuminates a life devoted to the world her art and stories represent. Essay by Michael Dirda.
This is a 62-page children's picture book about one of the world's most beloved characters, Peter Rabbit. Of Mrs. Rabbit's four children, Peter is the naughty, and he just barely escapes harrowing experiences.
This edition of the book is lavishly illustrated with many full-page, color drawings by Virginal Albert. Each page has been restored to its original condition as carefully and completely as possible.
In 1903 Beatrix Potter designed and patented a Peter Rabbit doll – making Peter Rabbit the world’s oldest licensed character.
The Tale of Peter Rabbit was first published commercially in 1902, although Potter published 250 copies privately in 1901.
* This e-book is a true representation, from a high-definition scan of a pre-1923 print version of the book. Unlike other e-copies of the book, it was not produced by using Optical Character Recognition (OCR). OCR-scanning old books is seldom, if ever, error-free. This often results in an e-book with many **, ^^, >> and typographic errors when OCR can't read the word or punctuation correctly.
* "True representation" means that if there are typographic, spelling, or grammatical errors that the editor judges to have minimal impact on the book's comprehension, they have been preserved; otherwise, they were corrected.
* In other words, no changes or as few as possible have been made to either illustrations or text in order to bring you an e-book that is as close to the original as possible.
