BOOK REVIEW: IT’S BEATRIX POTTER’S BIRTHDAY!

​Beatrix Potter was born on July 28, 1866, so let’s honor this amazing children’s author-illustrator by reading a picture book all about her.

​

TITLE: BEATRIX AND HER FRIENDS: CELEBRATING THE LIFE OF BEATRIX POTTER

AUTHOR/ILLUSTRATOR: Anne Lambelet

PUBLISHER: Margaret Quinlin Books (imprint of Peachtree Publishing)

OPENING LINES:

​Beatrix belonged in nature.
When everything around her was growing and changing, her heart came alive.

If you’re a fan of biographies, nature, animals, children’s books, art, or Beatrix Potter, this book is for you. This lovely story highlights the life of Beatrix Potter and how her love of nature and animals grew into a desire to write and illustrating books for children. I gushed over the gorgeous illustrations (including adorably illustrated endpapers!) that are reflective of Potter’s famous book characters but are done in Lambelet’s iconic style. I love this book from cover to cover!
