  • The Enduring Tale of Beatrix Potter by Val Baynton
    The Enduring Tale of Beatrix Potter by Val Baynton ‘Once upon a time there were four little Rabbits, and their names were Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail, and Peter.’ This, the opening sentence of The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter, must be one of the most famous openings to a children’s book. First published privately by Potter, it began her career as a children’s author, but it represents just one aspect of the life of this extraordinary lady. A fuller biography was explored in the film Miss Potter, released in the UK on 5th January 2007, which told the story of how Beatrix developed her artistic and story-telling abilities from a young age and rebelled against the conventions of the time by refusing to marry for the sake of it. The film, starring Renée Zellweger as Beatrix Potter and Ewan McGregor as Norman Warne, received mixed reviews with some critics describing it as ‘twee’ and not liking the way Beatrix’s drawings of characters such as Peter Rabbit or Jemima Puddleduck were animated. Others described it as ‘enchanting’, ‘the right balance of pathos, humour and romance’ and ‘an entertaining trifle, but a trifle nevertheless.’ One of the best biographies published about Beatrix Potter is by Judy Taylor. Beatrix Potter Artist, Storyteller and Countrywoman, recounts Potter’s story from her Victorian childhood in London to her final years farming in the Lake District. Regarded as a standard work on Beatrix Potter’s life, the book has been updated regularly to include fresh material and previously unpublished photographs that have come to light.

Each one’s concept of peace was similar to the others. Grahame voiced it as “my own little home” through his character Mole in The Wind in the Willows.1 Potter expressed it through the words “at home in his peaceful nest in a sunny bank” in her book The Tale of Johnny Town-Mouse.2 Finally, Milne described it in The House at Pooh Corner as “that enchanted

    Beatrix Potter Today we will be... Finding out about some of Beatrix Potter’s most famous stories. NEXT www.planbee.com What can you remember about Beatrix Potter? Think of three facts to share with a partner. BACK NEXT www.planbee.com Beatrix Potter is one of the most famous British children’s authors and illustrators of all time. She was born in London in 1866 into a rich family. From a very young age, she enjoyed studying plants and animals, particularly drawing and painting them. She used to write letters to her friends and family that had little pictures of animals, as well as funny stories about them. When she was 27, she wrote a letter to the son of her old governess about a naughty little rabbit called Peter. BACK NEXT www.planbee.com A few years later, she asked her governess for the letter back so she could turn the letter into a proper storybook. She spent time turning the quick sketches into proper drawings and making some changes to the story itself. BACK NEXT www.planbee.com In 1901, when she was 35 years old, Beatrix took her story and illustrations to six different publishers in the hope that they would turn her story into a proper book, but no one wanted to publish it. They thought they were silly children’s stories that no one would buy. But Beatrix didn’t let this stop her. She published the book by herself and paid for 250 copies to be made. At this stage, the pictures were still in black and white.

  • An Analysis of Human-Animal Relations in Peter Rabbit Books 作者
    投稿類別:英文寫作類 篇名: An Analysis of Human-Animal Relations in Peter Rabbit Books 作者: 張庭頤。國立新竹女子高級中學。高二 1 班 黃辰淳。國立新竹女子高級中學。高二 1 班 指導老師: 高典君老師 An Analysis of Human-Animal Relations in Peter Rabbit Books I. Introduction Growing up reading so many children’s books, we wonder why people choose to tell stories using animals as characters. Indeed, in The Pleasures of Children’s Literature, it is mentioned that “it seems that adults now tend to think of „kids‟ as basically animal-like beings who must be taught how to act like civilized humans” (Nodelman & Reimer, 2003). Using animals as characters could therefore be considered a good way to make children comprehend the stories. Since the twenty-three tales written by Beatrix Potter are regarded as prominent children’s books that remain celebrated after more than a century, we decided to take them as examples while digging into this field. Beatrix Potter was a British writer who was born in the Victorian era. She initially told stories in order to enrich the letters she wrote to her former governess’s son. The stories she came up with later became the basis of The Tale of Peter Rabbit and The Tale of the Flopsy Bunnies. In the 23 tales written by Beatrix Potter, each book is specifically about a different character. Most of the leading characters in the stories are animals living in the rural regions of England, and the stories are mainly about daily lives or adventures of those human-like animals. In the series of Peter Rabbit Books, we discovered that most animals in the stories live a human-like lifestyle.

  • The Tale of Tom Kitten the Tale of Tom Kitten
    THE TALE OF TOM KITTEN THE TALE OF TOM KITTEN BY BEATRIX POTTER Author of "The Tale of Peter Rabbit", &c. DEDICATED TO ALL PICKLES, ESPECIALLY TO THOSE THAT GET UPON MY GARDEN WALL Once upon a time there were three little kittens, and their names were Mittens, Tom Kitten, and Moppet. They had dear little fur coats of their own; and they tumbled about the doorstep and played in the dust. But one day their mother Mrs. Tabitha Twitchit expected friends to tea; so she fetched the kittens indoors, to wash and dress them, before the fine company arrived. First she scrubbed their faces (this one is Moppet). Then she brushed their fur, (this one is Mittens). Then she combed their tails and whiskers (this is Tom Kitten). Tom was very naughty, and he scratched. Mrs. Tabitha dressed Moppet and Mittens in clean pinafores and tuckers; and then she took all sorts of elegant uncomfortable clothes out of a chest of drawers, in order to dress up her son Thomas. Tom Kitten was very fat, and he had grown; several buttons burst off. His mother sewed them on again. When the three kittens were ready, Mrs. Tabitha unwisely turned them out into the garden, to be out of the way while she made hot buttered toast. "Now keep your frocks clean, children! You must walk on your hind legs. Keep away from the dirty ash-pit, and from Sally Henny Penny, and from the pig-stye and the Puddle- Ducks." Moppet and Mittens walked down the garden path unsteadily.

    FREE THE FAIRY CARAVAN PDF Beatrix Potter | 304 pages | 07 Jul 2016 | Penguin Books Ltd | 9780141353883 | English | United Kingdom The Fairy Caravan - WikiMili, The Best Wikipedia Reader The author is well-known, but the story itself is much less famous. Potter was a dedicated farmer and a champion of protecting rural life and small farms in the Lake District, and her love of this particular part of Britain always comes through in her stories. The The Fairy Caravan who make up the travelling circus visit many different farms, crofts and villages to perform their shows, meeting a whole host of colourful characters along the way. The story begins with Tuppenny, always a little ill and quite scruffy-looking, being given a hair-growing treatment by his family to help his coat get thicker. Unfortunately, the treatment is a bit too effective, and Tuppenny ends up looking more like Cousin It than any of the other guinea pigs in his town. Ashamed of The Fairy Caravan new The Fairy Caravan unusual appearance, Tuppenny runs away The Fairy Caravan joins the circus, finding new friends, broadening his horizons, and learning about the wider world around him. The fairies appear in a chapter that hammers home the real theme of the story — the protection The Fairy Caravan these natural, wild spaces from industrialisation, a message that Potter carried forward in the conservation work to which she devoted the later part of her life. If you want to know a little more about Beatrix Potter herself, Happy Birthday, Beatrix Potter has some brilliant suggestions.
