Girls didn't go to school and weren't expected to work. But she longed to do something important, something that truly mattered. As Beatrix spent her summers in the country and found inspiration in nature, it was through this passion that her creativity flourished. There, she crafted The Tale of Peter Rabbit. She would eventually move to the countryside full-time, but developers sought to change the land. To save it, Beatrix used the money from the success of her books and bought acres and acres of land and farms to prevent the development of the countryside that both she and Peter Rabbit so cherished. Because of her efforts, it's been preserved just as she left it. This beautiful picture book shines a light on Beatrix Potter's lesser-known history and her desire to do something for the greater good. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 600 10 $a Potter, Beatrix, $d 1866-1943 $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Authors, English $y 20th century $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Artists $z Great Britain $v Juvenile literature. $v Juvenile literature. 650 0 $a Children's stories $x Authorship $v Juvenile literature. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Picture books. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Urbinati, Ilaria, $d 1984- $e illustrator. 941 $a 18 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240502012338.0 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240305021116.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010020923.0 952 $l WBPB115 $d 20230209022753.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220913011026.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20220903010343.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20220806013637.0 952 $l FTPA274 $d 20220803010801.0 952 $l YCPD572 $d 20220518025349.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20210924020033.0 952 $l CUPC586 $d 20201203010225.0 952 $l HNPC845 $d 20200903010352.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20200724010616.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20200409010325.0 952 $l HPPD845 $d 20200407020610.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20200407010411.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20200314010546.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20200219010225.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8248A02052E511EAA613AE5697128E48 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
