P is for Beatrix Potter


I love Beatrix Potter's stories of Peter Rabbit and friends.  I read them to Sophia as a child and delight in all things Beatrix Potter.


When my parents lived in England, they visited the shop at The World of Beatrix Potter, an amazing store full of all sorts of wonderful baby and gift items. 

Hill Top, Beatrix Potter's home in Cumbria, is on my list of places to visit and I loved the movie Miss Potter.  When I found this book, The Making of Miss Potter, I knew I had to add it to my library.
The Making of Miss Potter is a wonderful companion to the movie with beautiful photographs and lots of information about the locations, the cast and crew, and the story of how history was recreated.  A must-have for any movie, and Beatrix Potter, fan!
