	A Children's Classic for Ages to come  Mar 9, 2010
A true gem in the world of children's books, The Tale of Peter Rabbit truly stands out as one of the most charming and entertaining books for youngsters. This story tells one of the iconic Peter Rabbit's adventures. Beautifully illustrated in full color, and told with a sense of harsh honesty not often present in other children's books of this time. Peter Rabbit, despite the warnings of his mother, enters the dreaded Mr. McGregor's garden and feasts upon the man's forbidden vegetables. When Mr. McGregor sees Peter, he begins a pursuit of Peter that lasts most of the story. Frantic, Peter does everything that he can to avoid Mr. McGregor. Peter almost gets caught, but thankfully, due to a little luck and some motivation from friends, Peter is ultimately able to escape. The story ends with Peter hopefully having learned a lesson. He pays for his misbehavior by being too sick to enjoy dinner. A true classic, and one that I highly recommend. Darien Summers, author of The Mischievous Hare, a children's book.The Mischievous Hare
	*The original and authorized edition*  Mar 7, 2010
When this was published in 2002 on the occasion of the original's Centennial, it included never before seen artwork. The text was also reset in period typeface. Thick, rich paper, classic small keepsake size, sturdy hardcover. Everything looks brilliant. The story is here in its entirety, rabbit pie and all! The Tale of Peter Rabbit is at once a cautionary tale and also a portfolio of some of the most endearing (but still realistic, save for the clothes!) rabbits ever drawn. P.S. Who is Elsa Knight Bruno and why does she show up here as the author? I think she worked for a book packager. this site needs to fix this!
	Wonderful classic  Dec 3, 2009
There is a reason that this book has endured for over 100 years. Children love it! My daughter is almost two and loves Peter Rabbit. The traditional, small size is perfect for little hands. And the illustrations are quaint. Beware of imitation and abridged copies (of which we were gifted a couple); they are most definitely not the same and usually sport hideous copies of the illustrations and strange manglings of the text.
	Just as good as it was in my childhood  Dec 2, 2009
I remember loving Beatrix Potter's book The Tale of Peter Rabbit when I was a little girl, so it's fun to look at it again as an adult. While it's true that the animals wear shoes and jackets (which is a little strange), I still love the mischievous Peter and his narrow escape from Mr. McGregor, whose garden he raids. As an adult, I have found even more to admire in this sweet little book. I, for one, could stand to learn from Mrs. Rabbit's unwavering patience with Peter -- especially in comparison to Mr. McGregor's terrible temper. And I hope my daughter takes a cue from Peter's love of veggies. Top that all off with the fact that the illustrations are delightful, no matter how many times we look at them, and this classic book remains one of our all-time favorites.
	Peter Rabbit, A Classic  Nov 23, 2009
A very amazing book. Simple to understand and the story is not too lengthy. Illustrations are really great and well rendered. Story is very easy to follow and clear. After one hundred years, the book is still circulating. Great!
