Book Reviews of The World of Peter Rabbit (The Original Peter Rabbit, Books 1-23, Presentation Box)

Book Review: A Dazzling Book Set!
Summary: 5 Stars

If there is a version of Beatrix Potter that you are seeking to enrich your home library, look no further.

Beatrix Potter's stories are an incredible imagination booster and smashing read alouds. The language is so rich and every tale you read is an incredibly rewarding experience for both listener and reader.

From my experience, a small number of the tales have somewhat darker plot elements, so be sure to read the stories beforehand if you have very very young kids.

Beatrix Potter's language is magical and it is entrancing for kids. Combined with her rich illustrations - the books are irresistible for kids. These small books have the optimal ratio of text to pictures.

While the story of Peter Rabbit is so universally well known, many of the others are not so widely known.

This 23-book set is the definite presentation of Peter Rabbit's adventures, Squirrel Nutkin's incredible tale (tail!) and the cute (yes, indeed) yarns of naughty litle Tom Kitten.


According to the publisher, the colors and details of the watercolors in this edition have been reproduced more accurately than ever before, which makes it even more enjoyable for small readers.

These are 100-year old stories and what stands out in all of them - apart from the beatiful watercolors - is the incredibly rich vocabulary of a time when man used to live closer to nature.

The quality of this collection of 23 small books, perfectly sized for little hands, is amazing. The book case that holds the 23 books is sturdy and beautiful, its a keepsake.

The rich vocabulary may seem to be a bit complicated for some, but the more you read you will notice how every story becomes more enjoyable - and your kids' comprehension will steadily improve.

These are stories and books that are built to last, which together with the sturdy presentation box consists an offer that should not be missed.

As regards the contents of the presentation box, here is the full list of the books that are included:


The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902)
