Pass this book on from generation to generation! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This is a lovely book that comes in a sturdy, decorative, open-eneded box to protect the volume. Besides containing all of Beatrix Potter's wonderful children's stories, it has all of the original illustrations in one volume. This is the perfect "bedtime story" book, and it sits on the nightstand next to my 11-old-granddaughter's bed. She reads the stories to her 3-year-old sister every night, and is planning on continuing the tradition with her 1-year-old brother. She told me that she is enjoying the stories as much as her little sister!

I purchased this book as a gift for their family, and, as a proud grandmother, I can't think of anything that costs so little and yet gives so much. I would recommend this book for anyone! I am going to purchase another copy for my own house, just in case I have guests who show up with little ones. It's a perfect addition to anyone's library, and I highly recommend it.

Editorial Review:

This complete and unabridged collection contains all 23 of Beatrix Potter's Tales in one deluxe volume with all their original illustrations. The stories are arranged in the order in which they were first published to enable them to be read in proper sequence, as several are linked together by events and characters. A section at the end of the book contains four additional works by Beatrix Potter that were not published in her own lifetime.

Beautiful presentation for a wonderful set 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

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.

A real treasure chest 5 out of 5 stars.

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.

Editorial Review:

This title is a beautiful box containing all 23 original "Peter Rabbit Books".

Editorial Review:

The quintessential cautionary tale, Peter Rabbit warns naughty children about the grave consequences of misbehaving. When Mrs. Rabbit beseeches her four furry children not to go into Mr. McGregor's garden, the impish Peter naturally takes this as an open invitation to create mischief. He quickly gets in over his head, when he is spotted by farmer McGregor himself. Any child with a spark of sass will find Peter's adventures remarkably familiar. And they'll see in Flopsy, Mopsy, and Cotton-tail that bane of their existence: the "good" sibling who always does the right thing. One earns bread and milk and blackberries for supper, while the obstinate folly of the other warrants medicine and an early bedtime.

Beatrix Potter's animal stories have been a joy to generations of young readers. Her warm, playful illustrations in soft colors invite children into the world of words and flights of fancy. Once there, she gently and humorously guides readers along the path of righteousness, leaving just enough room for children to wonder if that incorrigible Peter will be back in McGregor's garden tomorrow. (Ages Baby to Preschool)

Join Peter Rabbit and his friends in this delightful mini pop-up board book. Just the right size for an Easter basket, each spread features its own playful pop-up as Peter plays with friends and runs through Mr. McGregor’s garden. The perfect springtime gift book.

An enchanting must-have keepsake for Beatrix Potter fans! 5 out of 5 stars.
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.

'Beatrix Potter: A Journal" is a beautifully bound keepsake that Beatirx Potter fans will cherish for years to come. It is presented in the form of a journal or rather an album, and basically contains journal entries dating back to when Beatrix was 16 years old and had begun discovering wonderful things that helped her evolve into the creative writer and creator of Peter Rabbit and friends.

The journal is beautifully put together - there are old family pictures, reproductions of Beatrix's original sketches and drawings, personal documents [e.g. Beatrix's old report card] - what a delight to peruse these treasures. The journal entries themselves make for absorbing reading - though they are in cursive form and younger reders may need help with deciphering what is written. There are reproductions of letters to family and friends,delightful illustrations throughout the journal. Of interest is information as to how certain characters in The Tale of Peter Rabbit and Friends was inspired by real-life people, such as the character of Farmer McGregor.

There are many lift-the-flap features in this journal that makes it even more of a treat - there's an envelope containing a reproduction of the letter which contains the story of Peter Rabbit complete with illustrations, a map of the beautiful Lake District, a paper version of the game of Peter Rabbit, and the prize jewel in this journal - right at the end of the journal, embedded into it, is a little book "The Tale of Peter Rabbit"! One would not know it, for it is concealed so well - and indeed a delight to peruse.

I can't recommend this highly enough. I am a life-long fan of Beatrix Potter and my three-year old daughter is following in my footsteps. It is such a treat to be able to share this book with her!

Editorial Review:

This lavish, illustrated journal describes Beatrix Potter's life as a young woman in Victorian Britain as she struggles to achieve independence and to find artistic success and romantic love. Using witty, observant commentary taken from Beatrix' s own diaries, the journal moves from London to Scotland to the Lake District, and features a wealth of watercolour paintings, sketches, photographs, letters, paper-engineered items and period memorabilia to recreate a world where nature and imagination are brilliantly combined.

Children's Christmas Gift 5 out of 5 stars.
8 of 8 people found this review helpful.

This was a great Christmas gift for three young children who are fans of Peter Rabbit. Provided several gifts for each, and they can pass around and share. The small size of the books are something very young children (around three or four years of age) really like and can handle easily. The carrying case was also a hit.

A great alternative to the fairy tales stories 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

It is nice to read books for a 3 year old that don't deal with wicked witches trying to harm pretty maidens and prince charmings saving the day. After watching the movie about Beatrix Potter my little girl said she wanted to read the Peter Rabbit books and I ordered this set. Each book is the perfect size for little hands with lots of pictures of animals and a gentle story without traumatizing stories. What a change from the plots of Snow White etc. I like those stories but night after night she is bound to have nightmares.

Editorial Review:

This is an attractively designed gift box with handle and gold-style clasp, suitable for a child's nursery. Containing the first 12 of "Beatrix Potter's 23 Original Peter Rabbit Tales" - "The Tales of Peter Rabbit"; "Squirrel Nutkin"; "The Tailor of Gloucester"; "Benjamin Bunny"; "Two Bad Mice"; "Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle"; "Mr. Jeremy Fisher"; "Tom Kitten"; "Jemima Puddle-Duck"; "The Flopsy Bunnies"; "Mrs. Tittlemouse" and "Timmy Tiptoes". It is the perfect christening or birth-gift.

THE BEST BEATRIX POTTER BOOK 5 out of 5 stars.
15 of 15 people found this review helpful.

I bought this book for my best friend who is expecting her first child. I wanted something Beatrix Potter because I grew up to these wonderful stories and I wanted it to be part of her childs life and memories. I am so glad I chose to get this particular book! The illustrations are beautiful and filled with color. It is a wonderful book filled with all of the popular Beatrix Potter stories that I remember! I recommend this book to anyone who loves Beatrix Potter stories....this is the one!

Editorial Review:

Imagine getting fourteen of Beatrix Potter's classic tales in one deluxe volume. Including all her most popular stories--The Tales of Peter Rabbit, Tom Kitten, Mr. Jeremy Fisher, Jemima Puddle-Duck and more-- this 12 inch by 12 inch oversized hardcover offers high quality reproductions of Beatrix Potter's original art and all the charm of the original little books, perfect for reading aloud. But at this price, parents won't worry for a moment about letting kids read it to themselves.

A Fine Miniature Library 5 out of 5 stars.
15 of 18 people found this review helpful.

After seeing the movie, Miss Potter, I wanted to know more of Potter's stories than Peter Rabbit. I collect small things. I so very much enjoyed reading each of these 12 lovely little books. The case is designed so beautifully and only takes a small space on my book shelf.

Editorial Review:

Pull open the ingeniously designed drawer to reveal 12 of Potter’s most popular tales in adorable, miniaturized paperbacks. The complete text and art of each tale is included, and the small size gives an added appeal to the charm of Beatrix Potter’s original stories. Newly redesigned to feature the new look for classic Beatrix Potter.

Editorial Review:

To celebrate Peter's birthday, Frederick Warne is publishing new editions of all 23 of Potter's original tales, which take the very first printings of Potter's works as their guide. The aim of these editions is to be as close as possible to Beatrix Potter's intentions while benefiting from modern printing and design techniques.

The colors and details of the watercolors in the volumes are reproduced more accurately than ever before, and it has now been possible to disguise damage that has affected the artwork over the years. Most notably, The Tale of Peter Rabbit restores six of Potter's original illustrations. Four were sacrificed in 1903 to make space for illustrated endpapers, and two have never been used before. Of course, Beatrix Potter created many memorable children's characters, including Benjamin Bunny, Tom Kitten, Jemima Puddle-duck and Jeremy Fisher. But whatever the tale, both children and adults alike can be delighted by the artistry in Potter's illustrations, while they also enjoy a very good read. Because they have always been completely true to a child's experience, Potter's 23 books continue to endure.

I've loved this book since childhood and when i saw that there was a special edition of it, i wanted it right way.

My book cover is silver but is not the book cover pictured above. Hence, the lower star rating.

Pefect book for any ages 5 out of 5 stars.

I've always loved Beatrix Potter's book series, and this commemorative edition is especially loveable that it's an imitation of the original books Ms. Potter had her publisher published to fit little children's little hands. My 6 yr old son loves it and began to read it as soon as he received it. I only wish that Amazon has more of these commemorative editions for her other books. I love Amazon's fast & free shipping, and best deals!

Editorial Review:

The Tale of Peter Rabbit first appeared in 1902 and made its author, Beatrix Potter, a household name. This special gift edition, a replica of the very first edition of the book, features a glamorous silver foil jacket to commemorate the release of the film Miss Potter, which tells the story of that remarkable woman and how she found success with her first book.
