Published by Warne in a handsome hardback presentation box, this collection has introduced generations of American families to Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle-Duck, Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle, and the rest of Potter's beloved animal cast.

About the Books
The World of Peter Rabbit brings together all 23 of Beatrix Potter's classic animal tales in their original little-book format, exactly as she designed them over a century ago to fit comfortably into small hands. The collection opens with The Tale of Peter Rabbit, the mischievous garden adventure that launched Potter's career in 1902, and continues through favorites such as The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin, The Tailor of Gloucester, and The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck. Alongside the well-known stories sit quieter gems like The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse and The Tale of Pigling Bland, plus two volumes of original nursery rhymes, Cecily Parsley's and Appley Dapply's, that round out the set with playful verse. Potter set her stories in the real farms, gardens, and fells of England's Lake District, drawing from careful observation of the animals around her, which gives every tale its gentle authenticity. Presented together in a sturdy hardback box, the collection lets young readers move freely from one tiny adventure to the next, discovering recurring characters and settings that link Potter's wider Peter Rabbit universe. For parents and grandparents, the set offers the same edition many of them grew up with, now ready to be passed down and read aloud all over again as a complete, faithful introduction to Potter's enduring animal tales, gentle morals, and unmistakably English countryside charm.

About the Author
Beatrix Potter (1866-1943) was an English author, illustrator, and naturalist best known for The Tale of Peter Rabbit, first published in 1902. Raised in London but devoted to the countryside of the Lake District, Potter spent her childhood sketching animals and plants with scientific precision, a habit that shaped the detailed illustrations found throughout her tales. Over three decades she wrote and illustrated 23 little books featuring Peter Rabbit and many more characters beloved by children worldwide. Potter also used her earnings to purchase and preserve farmland in the Lake District, later donating thousands of acres to the National Trust.
