Book Reviews of Tales of Peter Rabbit and His Friends
Book Review: A wonderful addition to any Potter fan's library!
Summary: 5 Stars
I found a copy of this edition at a library booksale and bought it as I have always loved Beatrix Potter's whimsical tales. This edition has 13 stories in it comprising:
The Tale of Peter Rabbit
The Tailor of Gloucester
The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin
The Tale of Benjamin Bunny
The Tale of Two Bad Mice
The Tale of Mrs Tiggy-winkle
The Pie and the Patty-Pan
The Tale of Mr Jeremy Fisher
The Story of a Fierce Bad Rabbit
The Story of Miss Moppet
The Tale of Tom Kitten
The Tale of Jemima Puddle-duck, and
The Roly-Poly Pudding
The illustrations are in both color and black and white, and my only grouse is that they are a bit small, there are on average, 3 illustrations per page, and together with the text, that seems a bit crowded. I think this edition is more suitable for older children and adults than younger children. I know that my two-year-old prefers the individual books [one story per book] where its not only more compact for little hands to handle but also has bigger illustrations.
On the whole though, I feel this is a great addition to one's library, and makes for easy carrying around...I love to read these stories on rainy days, as it warms my heart:)
