Peter Rabbit and Other Tales

In 1902, Frederick Warne & Co. brought this delightful story to the public. Their new edition of The Tale Of Peter Rabbit quickly became a hit with young readers. More animal adventures soon followed with The Tale of  Squirrel Nutkin (1903) and The Tale of Benjamin Bunny (1904) among other stories. Norman Warne worked as her editor on many of these early titles.

Potter suffered a great personal loss in 1905 when Warne died. He passed away just weeks after he proposed to her. Her parents, however, had objected to the match. She bought Hill Top Farm in the Lake District that same year and there she wrote such books as The Tale of Tom Kitten (1907) and The Tale of Samuel Whiskers (1908).
Later Life and Death
In 1913, Potter married local lawyer William Heelis. She only produced a few more books after tying the knot. Potter published The Fairy Caravan in 1926, but only in the United States. She thought the book was too autobiographical to be released in England. The Tale of Little Pig Robinson (1930) proved to be her final children's book. 
Instead of writing, Potter focused much of her attention on her farms and land preservation in the Lake District. She was a successful breeder of sheep and well regarded for her work to protect the beautiful countryside she adored.

Potter died on December 22, 1943, in Sawrey, England. In her will, she left much of her land holdings to the National Trust to protect it from development and to preserve it for future generations. Potter also left behind a mystery—she had written a journal in code. The code was finally cracked and the work published in 1966 as The Journal of Beatrix Potter. To this day, generation after generation are won over by her charming tales and illustrations.

Tuesday 6/15 My Background is in Communications, This piece is a beautiful story selling a tough old American Brand. And I relate because at the beginning of Quarantine, I bought a pair of Work pants and hiking shoes and have worn them almost everyday.  They have stains, rips, a bleach spot, paint and my life displayed on them, and the story Jason tells is a beautiful. I didn't really know about Jason until I watched this. https://youtu.be/zL7SobTAnuQ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Momoa This sums up Quarantine in a profound way for me. He embraces life and family. Ohana. This movie is worth the time it takes to watch. American and authentic. You may like this one too.
