When looking for a set of Peter Rabbit books for my nephew, I found that there is a new version that has abandoned Miss Potter's drawings in favor of a flat lifeless rendition of the characters...how can this be? Who would want to alter the image of Peter we have grown up with? The details are important..and don't think children don't notice everything they see in them...they do! The watercolor illustrations breathe life into the characters making you believe they are real!

This tiny boxed set is true to Miss Potter's desire to have the books small enough to fit into the young readers hands. While not a series of board books, they will need to be handled with care, a good place to begin with your child by teaching them to cherish and care for books with a treasure like this Peter Rabbit mini set. They are excellent addtions to your library with the original watercolor illustrations by Beatrix Potter. A very good investment!

After seeing the movie, Miss Potter, I wanted to know more of Potter's stories than Peter Rabbit. I collect small things. I so very much enjoyed reading each of these 12 lovely little books. The case is designed so beautifully and only takes a small space on my book shelf.
