Features: The author created a group of animal characters filled with the flavor of everyday life using innocent love, tender attachment, and primitive curiosity, which have won the hearts of generations over the past century. Today, in any English bookstore, you can see variously bound collections of Beatrix Potter stories. During her lifetime, Beatrix Potter herself made some toys and ornaments related to the stories and applied for patents. Later, more toy animals and various small trinkets were created, some of which were particularly exquisite and were auctioned at the renowned Sotheby's auction house. Reader clubs of Beatrix Potter have spontaneously organized across the world. The mischievous yet timid Peter Rabbit, the reckless Benjamin Bunny, the sharp-tongued and greedy Samuel Whiskers, the naive yet opinionated Jeremy Duck, and my personal favorite—the wise yet humble, open-minded Piglet—live in a beautiful village where they never age.
