Beatrix Potter (1866-1943) was an English author, illustrator, natural scientist, and conservationist best known for her children’s books featuring animals. Potter’s artistic and literary interests were deeply influenced by fairies, fairy tales and fantasy. Her best known picture book is The Tale of Peter Rabbit which was also her first publication. The great success was followed by the number of successful children’s books about animals, such as The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, The Tailor of Gloucester and The Tale of Benjamin Bunny. She carried on to write and illustrate until her diminishing eyesight made it difficult to continue. Potter’s books continue to sell throughout the world in many languages with her stories being retold in song, film, ballet, and animation.

Sorry, I love my ereader, but it's only there for dull modern text. Beatrix Potter, Enid Blyton, Roald Dahl, all deserve to be read as actual printed paper books, turning pages as you read to the kids, borders around the illustrations to pause and give you space to trace fingers over the picture, books to collect. I'll happily read my crime and comedy on a black and grey screen, but children need colour and the tactile quality of a book.

Yep I agree this isn’t for everyone, but it is for some. I personally wouldn’t crack the kindle out to read to a child. But I expect these to be read by big kids, on the train to work :wink:

Im reading this collection to my six year old - they may be classic but are they enjoyable to the current crop ? some of the text is dated and not used in modern vocab and the stories, well... quaint but dull, imo, she never asks for them to be read again put it this way.
