Happy birthday, Beatrix Potter! This beloved children’s author and illustrator was born on July 28, 1866 in London. Let’s celebrate her life and creative genius.
She is featured in A Very English Christmas in the novella A Tale of the Season. The heroine befriends Beatrix while visiting the Lake District. (pre-order link: https://www.amazon.com/Very-English-Christmas-Literary-Inspired-Novellas-ebook/dp/B0FHBW12XP/ref)
I read quite a few interesting books about Beatrix’s life. Here are a few that I recommend: Beatrix Potter, A Life in Nature by Linda Lear, Over the Hills and Far Away by Matthew Dennison, and Beatrix Potter’s Gardening Life by Marta McDowell.
Happy Birthday to the woman who gave us Peter Rabbit, Benjamin Bunny, and Squirrel Nutkin.
