5.0 out of 5 stars A classic work of children's fiction, 25 Feb 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck (The Original Peter Rabbit Books) (Hardcover)
Like all of her series of books, the tale of Jemima Puddleduck is an enchanting story which has lost nothing almost a century since she wrote them. Delightful illustrations serve only to improve on the wonderful text, making this book lovely collector's item, or merely a bed-time story for children of all ages. I would reccommend this wholeheartedly to anyone who had small children, or just liked the visualisations of a woman who is undoubtedly one of the greatest creative writers of the last hundred years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Still One of the Best Children's Stories of all Time, 11 May 2007
By J. Chippindale (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

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 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.
