A beautiful boxed set of all the Beatrix Potter Tales. This new edition comes in a contemporary-coloured box with a flip top lid and is embossed with characters from the books. The back of the box reveals a library image showing all 23 titles and their chronological order. Each book is published as fresh and authentic as its first day of publishing but now each book jacket is coloured from the palette of that era. Now over one hundred years later the books faithfully follow Miss Potters intentions of a little 'Tale', whilst benefiting from advances in modern printing techniques to produce colour and detail of the watercolours more accurately than before and the full set is only available for a limited time in this design. Loved the world over for a century each little book takes you deep into the English countryside as you become familiar with Beatrix Potter's famous and (mostly!) lovable characters, from naughty Peter Rabbit himself, to tidy Mrs Tittlemouse and unlucky Jeremy Fisher. Each tale with its soft water-colour artwork will delight and charm adults and children alike. Which is your favourite? This a stunning gift for any child that will be treasured for years to come.
About the Author:
Author Beatrix Potter is regarded as one of the world's best-loved children's authors of all time. From her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, published by Frederick Warne in 1902, she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including Mrs. Tiggy-winkle, Benjamin Bunny, Jemima Puddle-duck, Mr. Jeremy Fisher and Tom Kitten. Today Beatrix Potter's original 23 tales are still published by Frederick Warne, alongside a wide range of other formats including baby books, activity books and gift and sound books.
