The Tale of Benjamin Bunny (Original Peter Rabbit Books, 4), 18 Mar 2004

By	Lynda A. Bottos (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Tale of Benjamin Bunny (The Original Peter Rabbit Books) (Hardcover)

This book is a continuation of the Tale of Peter Rabbit in which Cousin Benjamin convinces Peter to retrieve his lost clothes from the forbidden Mr. MacGregor's garden. The intriguing way in which the two set off on their adventure is a perfect bedtime story for children. Potter's magical personification of the little animals is superb, and the beautifully restored sketches add magic to the story. Anyone who's ever watched wild little creatures can appreciate the way Potter brings them to life and gets into their "thoughts." This story is a must for animal lovers and those who love the old-style stories.

Some of the Best Stories for Younger Children, 14 May 2007

By	J. Chippindale (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews

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.
