Each ebook has been specially formatted with full-screen, full-color illustrations and the original, charming text.

Beatrix Potter

Beatrix Potter (1866-1943) was an English children’s book writer, best known for her Peter Rabbit series. Born to a wealthy family in English, Beatrix did not go to school and instead stayed at home, spending much of her time drawing and creating stories based on animals. In her 20’s, Beatrix attempted to get her children’s book and drawings published. Finally, in 1902 her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, was published, selling over 28,000 copies the first year. This series brought her fame and wealth. She went on to write 23 books. These works have had a profound impact on illustrated children’s books to this day.
