My granddaughter loves Peter Rabbit books. This one is extra special and produced to a very high standard. The net in which Peter gets trapped is very cleverly done.

The Tale of Peter Rabbit was written in 1900 and has stood the test of time very well. Generations of children have loved the story of Peter Rabbit, Squirrel Nutkin, Tom Kitten and Jemima Puddle-Duck among others and treasured the books of Beatrix Potter. It is up there among the greats of children's literature with Wind in the Willows, The Water Babies, Peter Pan, Treasure Island and many others.
In these days of computer games and electronic toys of one kind or another, books sadly are sometimes not as high on the list as they were a few years ago, perhaps that is why literacy in schools is not all that it could be. Personally as a child books were always my first love and Christmas would not have been the same without a Rupert annual.
Stories that involve animals as the main characters in books always seem to fascinate young children and Peter Rabbit has always been up there with the best. Next time you have to buy a present for a child, or even want to treat one of your younger grandchildren for no particular reason. Instead of looking for the latest DVD why not buy them a book. Peter Rabbit is a good one to start with.

Fun for the reader and the read-to

Even though our grandkids already have a copy of the original Peter Rabbit, this book is for adults and children to enjoy together. It has pop-ups, pull-outs, and fold-outs, and an absolutely splendid "net" trap with poor Peter Rabbit in it. The book requires either an older child or an adult on hand because, as with most pop-ups, a younger child can rip the tabs and illustrations.

This is a beautiful, well made book. The pop outs are really nice all in the original artwork. The story is complete and there are little "action" tabs you pull to make the bunnies move. I don't usually take the time to write reviews but this book was so well made....I was very impressed. Very well priced. Perfect for an easter basket!

Must-have book for Beatrix Potter fans

I have an extensive collection of Beatrix Potter books, and this one is excellent. Each page has pop-ups, moveable tabs, and fold-outs. Peter is even caught in the gooseberry net, which is fashioned with a heavy thread net with a paper Peter caught up by his paws. My two girls thought the book was great but they know that it is mine! I wouldn't recommend this for children under 3 unless they are very gentle with their books. Excellent book for collectors!
