Beatrix Potter's Picture Letters
As kids we were huge fan of children's book author Beatrix Potter's endless tales of mischievous animals--Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle-Duck, Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle and many others. Most know of her work as an author, but few know that her stories were first told as a series of picture-letters written to Noel Moore, revealing the tale of Peter Rabbit over the course of correspondance. In the letters Potter reveals the elementary stages of a lifelong love for animals and the ways in which she lived inside their heads, and theirs inside hers.
