The nanny suggested publishing the letters, and the stories became among the best-selling children's books of all time. Beatrix Potter's fantastic menagerie wears clothes, gets into mischief, and learns life lessons in this charming collection of classic stories. Join Peter Rabbit as he braves Mr. McGregor's garden, Benjamin Bunny in his quest for lost shoes, and a kindly tailor who is rewarded by the mice he rescued from his cat. Alcazar revives all of this in their rendition of:

About Beatrix Potter
Helen Beatrix Potter (1866–1943), born in London, is regarded as one of the world’s best-loved children’s authors of all time. From her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902) she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including Mrs Tiggy-winkle, Mr Jeremy Fisher, and Tom Kitten. Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood. A source of inspiration was the Lake District where she lived for the last thirty years of her life as a farmer and conservationist. Her books have been translated into nearly every language and have never been out of print.
