The World of Peter Rabbit (The Original Peter Rabbit, Books 1-23, Presentation Box) Review
User Submitted The World of Peter Rabbit (The Original Peter Rabbit, Books 1-23, Presentation Box) ReviewsNovember 29, 2008 Keepsake Item High quality, very nice printing, wonderfully packaged. From the original publisher. This will become a keepsake item for your children and family. November 25, 2008 never too old for Beatrix Potter.......... I bought this product for my mother-in-law (at the request of my mother-in-law) who is 79. She had just seen the movie Miss Potter with Rene Zellweger on TV and wanted to read the books. I got on Amazon and told her the choices - nothing would do but the boxed set. And having received it she talks every day about reading one of the little books. She absolutely loves it. The illustrations are of course, beautiful and the stories sweet. The books are as Beatrix Potter thought they should be - little for little hands. It's a beautiful set. September 30, 2008 Excellent service Books arrived within seven days of purchase - excellent service when you consider they travelled more than 12,000 miles to Australia. August 28, 2008 Feabrizio Celestini Excellent, elegant, always fascinating. Something the you shouldn't miss in your library. A great way to introduce Miss Potter's work to your chindren. July 31, 2008 A real treasure chest I bought this box as a gift to my family, as we have always loved the stories by Beatrix Potter. We've had a couple of books standing in the bookshelf since we (the parents of the family) were small ourselves. We have two boys ages 6 and 3, and both of them have fallen in love with Peter Rabbit, Benjamin Bunny and the rest of the animals. The box itself is both handy and pretty, and we placed it directly in our bookshelf. The books inside are the same as the ones that can be bought separately, and they all contain Potter's beautiful artwork and well-written stories. All in all we, the whole faily, are very pleased with this buy. It just couldn't get better. I'm also really pleased with the prices here at Amazon, as we would have to pay about $300 for this boxed set in Norway. July 10, 2008 Beautiful presentation for a wonderful set This is a wonderful collection in a beautiful box. I purchased it for my daughter's first birthday because I wanted to get her something more lasting than a toy. I was given the 12 book collection as a child, and The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin was the first book I ever read by myself. I remember loving how the small books were perfectly suited to my small hands. (Thus, if you are thinking about getting the book with the complete collection in one, I would not recommend it for a child. It would be better for a budget conscious person to get a collection with fewer books.) The stories are so appealing and timeless, and the illustrations are just beautiful. The price may be high, but I consider it to be an investment, and one that I highly recommend. July 8, 2008 Disapointing... I've bought the books for the kids I will have someday, but the beautiful box was damaged when I opened it. I've tried to return it, but the shipment costs are high... Amazon should be more responsable for it! But the histories are lovely... June 23, 2008 The World of Peter Rabbit My four year old granddaughter loves to have these stories read to her from the full collection I purchased for her mother when she was young. My daughter-in-law loves to read and teaches first grade. She just had her first child and I gave this as a gift. It is wonderfully bound and can certainly be kept for future generations. June 5, 2008 THE WORLD OF PETER RABBIT Anyone who is a Beatrix Potter or Peter Rabbit fan should purchase this set. In my opinion it is a treasure for adults, but also a treat for children. It is a set to protect and take care of, so I would read to the child and not allow them to handle the books. This only applies if you are an adult and a true Peter Rabbit fan. I was amazed at the box when I opened it. I purchased a second set for a friend who also adores Peter Rabbit. May 30, 2008 Beatrix Potter After having seen the movie Miss Potter, with Renee Zellweger, I was fascinated with this woman's courage and talent. I felt compelled to buy one of her titles in order to read the story, but more importantly to view the drawings that are so much a part of what she created. I purchased this product and am so very pleased with the quality and find myself taking one of the books out each day to enjoy...I always finish with a smile on my face and appreciation of this author's talent.The World of Peter Rabbit (The Original Peter Rabbit, Books 1-23, Presentation Box) For more The World of Peter Rabbit (The Original Peter Rabbit, Books 1-23, Presentation Box) reviews click here.
