Book Reviews of Beatrix Potter The Complete Tales
Book Review: children's literature
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is wonderful to share with children. It is too heavy for young children to hold but the stories and illustrations are outstanding! When I read this book, I think of how wonderful it would have been to hold young ones on my lap and read to them and discuss the beautiful illustrations. It is one of my favoite books and I am 80. I can hardly wait for the great grandchilren to come so I can share it with them.
Wish I had this book when I was teaching kindrgarten.
Book Review: Essential Beatrix Potter
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book containing all the works of Beatrix Potter. I think every home should have the complete works of Beatrix Potter, and this is a great way to get all the stories and illustrations in one volume. This is a lot less bulky than the complete works sets containing individual books. As far as I know, no illustrations have been left out. It comes in a nice slipcase and looks very elegant. I gave one to both of my children's grandmas for Christmas and they loved them.Book Review: Beatrix Potter The Complete Tales
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is not the pick-up-and-read size for a young reader. It's for the "read to me" time of day I think. So it's a great bonding device not quite suited to the busy caregiver.
The stories are cosy and impart much wisdom. The illustrations are as stimulating as the stories. So set aside quality time for the questions that follow.
The tone is gentle and values are not ignored.
Valuable addition to a child's library.
Book Review: Beatrix Potter Gem
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this book for my small grandniece, as a birthday gift. She instantly recognized it as a treasure. She doesn't treat it like her other books. She sits quietly and carefully turns the pages, as if she knows she will want to have it for a long time. She keeps it separate from the others, and has become a complete Potter (NOT Harry) fan. This was an inspired purchase. I hoped that my childhood passion would translate to this generation, and it SO does.Book Review: Perfected Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this item for my mother because she was such a fan of the Peter Rabbit stories. However, inside this book was every single story of Potter's that was published including ones that never had a chance to be published before her death. Along with this are the original paintings she created for each story. My mother absolutely loves this and now reads it to my baby sister any chance she can. It is a must have for children's stories.
