The Tale of Peter Rabbit (Potter) Review
User Submitted The Tale of Peter Rabbit (Potter) ReviewsNovember 4, 2008 Cute version! (and inexpensive!!) I had to order something for $2 or so in order to get free shipping and this is what I chose. It is soooo cute and my kids love it. Obviously worth the price. :) October 18, 2008 Classic This book is so cute. It is in his original size, and have aditional images that the author coldn't use in the ocasion. Really good for kids and children books lovers like me. October 4, 2008 A Classic Tail...er, Tale THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT, by Beatrix Potter, has enchanted both children and adults for generations. An exciting adventure book for the wee ones, THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT is the story of Peter, who is very naughty. Peter disobeys his mother, and goes to Mr. McGregor's garden, where he gets into all manner of trouble. While Peter does eventually make it home, he is wet, sick, and has lost his clothes (his second set of clothes in a fortnight!), and his mother gives him chamomile tea for supper. His sisters, Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail, who are good little bunnies, get bread and milk and blackberries for supper. THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT gently teaches children to mind their mothers - good little children are given rewards, naughty children get into trouble. This simple tale engages and captivates youngsters who can easily relate to Peter's mischievousness. And while that lesson and Ms. Potter's story are both timeless, it is Ms. Potter's charming illustrations that are the true star of this book. Peter is drawn to look like a real rabbit; a rabbit that wears a very dapper jacket and a little pair of shoes. The soft colors and rich detail of the original drawings continue to delight children throughout the ages. My three year old adores hearing this story. Whenever we read it together, she loves to shout "Stop thief!" with Mr. McGregor and to sneeze "Kertyschoo!" with Peter. She clearly gets great fun and joy out of this classic tale, as do I. All of Beatrix Potter's tales are delightful to share; however, THE TALE OF PETER RABBIT holds a special place in our hearts. September 13, 2008 One of the greatest children's books ever This is probably one of the best children's books ever written! It's a charming story full of plenty of peril and surprising personality for a rabbit and the artwork is stunning. Instead of being truly innocent and plottless, Miss Potter plays on the fears and actuality of being a child--children get into trouble. Beautiful edition. May 10, 2008 True to the classic This is the original Potter story. I prefer this illustrator to all that I have seen try to update the classic. I used this with Kindergartens to teach story grammar. It is still a winner with little kids to this day. January 18, 2008 Classic I bought this for some young friends of mine (3 and 4.5 yrs), knowing that it is a classic that they should know about and will enjoy--just as I did at their age. September 3, 2007 Graphic SF Reader The story of a young, gregarious and voracious rodent who can't stop himself from pigging out in a human's vegie garden. Lucky for him, he avoids the usual and deserved case of rabbits when they become pests, and no shotgun pellets for this little critter, as he finally wises up to himself a bit. That is, until Alan Moore's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen 2, anyway. May 15, 2007 A little fine book for a better world Enchanted by the images of the Movie "B. Potter" I liked to hold this little great book made for children of all ages and which contains words and drawings of a person and a world with much more pure feelings than this one we're living.The Tale of Peter Rabbit (The World of Beatrix Potter: Peter Rabbit) April 19, 2007 Classic Love all of Miss Potters stories! Currently in the process of purchasing all of her books. They make a great addtion to the library. The books are small but beautiful! February 20, 2007 The Tale of Peter Rabbit It is an adorable story for children and adults alike. I know my little niece will love it. The hardcover edition of this book arrived in perfect order.
