Wiggle your finger and play with Peter Rabbit in this wonderful finger puppet book
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.
Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become
a natural part of childhood. From the revenue from the sales of her
books, Beatrix Potter bought a farm - Hill Top - in the English
Lake District, where she later became a farmer and prize-winning
sheep breeder. She launched the now vast merchandise programme by
patenting the very first Peter Rabbit doll in 1903. The product
range continues to grow today with licences around the world
including baby clothing and bedding, nursery decor products and
collectables. Upon her death, Beatrix Potter left 14 farms and over
4000 acres of Lake District farmland to the National Trust so that
the place that she loved would remain undeveloped and protected for
future generations to enjoy.
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.
