About this deal

This comprehensive gift set provides a perfect opportunity to share the original classic tales with a new generation of readers, in the format they were intended to be enjoyed in. The characters have also been heavily merchandised, with products ranging from stuffed toys to puzzles, and even currency! All of these characters and more feature in this set of wonderful stories, presented in full alongside a note about where the stories came from.

I actually think my copy was a present for my brother but somehow I ended up with it and - along with Winnie the Pooh - the stories are the first things I remember being able to read myself. This adorable numbers book with a soft finger puppet of Peter Rabbit is a perfect way to introduce the youngest readers to counting. She had numerous pets, and through holidays in Scotland and the Lake District, developed a love of landscape, flora, and fauna, all of which she closely observed and painted.She acquired her love and knowledge of the countryside during family holidays, at first in Scotland and then in the Lake District. Each tale is presented in its iconic white jacket and features a publisher's note describing how the story came to be. This set of books contains the tales of all of Beatrix's lovable characters, from naughty Peter Rabbit himself, to tidy Mrs. The Peter Rabbit puppet is cleverly stitched into the book so it can't get lost, and is used on every page to encourage interactive play, hand-eye coordination and language development.

The Tale of Pigling Bland - this story of a pig finding a soulmate reflects Beatrix Potter’s own life changes at the time. Nothing surpasses the first, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, but there is an interesting diversity of length and mood. In the years before the First World War, demand for her work was so great that she was publishing an average of two new stories a year.Because she was a woman, her parents discouraged intellectual development, but her study and paintings of fungi led her to be widely respected in the field of mycology. I bought this set of Beatrix Potter books years ago after reading a review about her as an author and an artist. Having nothing to do with the TV series, this set of books was well received and truly enjoyed by my 4 yo daughter.

Trading Address (Warehouse) Unit E, Vulcan Business Complex, Vulcan Road, Leicester, Leicestershire, LE5 3EB. This luxurious box features the new branded design, spot lamination and full-color original Beatrix Potter art, including a pop-up of Peter Rabbit and friends inside the lid.I've since lost those books, as I have all my children's book due to a sudden move and then a flood.

Printed here in the iconic white-jacketed pocket-sized hardback format, in a presentation case perfect for both storage and display, this boxed set makes the perfect gift for any occasion.
