Excellent biography, Wonderful photographs and illustrations,
This review is from: Beatrix Potter: Artist, Storyteller, and Countrywoman (Paperback)
This is my favorite biography of Beatrix Potter, thoroughly researched and historically accurate, with many wonderful family, home and countrylife photographs (including ones of Beatrix Potter's pet rabbit, dog, and a variety of her other animal pets). The book also contains her many beautiful illustrations, watercolors and copies of some notes and letters as well as portions of her manuscripts. Judy Taylor, an author enchanted with Beatrix Potter stories and art from early childhood, also wrote Beatrix Potter: The Artist and Her World, and two National Trust Guides: Beatrix Potter and Hilltop, and Beatrix Potter and Hawkshead. She's the editor of both Beatrix Potter's Letters: A Selection and Letters To Children from Beatrix Potter.

A Beloved Author Comes to Life,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Beatrix Potter: Artist, Storyteller, and Countrywoman (Paperback)
The illustrations and photographs make Judy Taylor's BEATRIX POTTER a wonderful read. I first went through the book and read the capitations for all the illustrations and then went back to read the narrative.
Mrs. Hellis as Beatrix Potter preferred to be know was a remarkable woman who lived in her own time. For ten years she produced a body of work that will remain the mainstay of childhood. Ms. Taylor brings this unique personality to life for the legions of fans around the world. Nash Black, author of Indie finalists WRITING AS A SMALL BUSINESS and HAINTS.
