Summary

The Tale of Peter Rabbit illustrated Beatrix Potter - Once upon a time there were four little Rabbits, and their names were  Flopsy, Mopsy, Cotton-tail, and Peter ..." This are the first words of one of the most famous and most successful children's books of all times.Beatrix Potter wrote and published it first privately in 1901, since the idea has been turned down by six commercial publishers. One year later finally, a editor discovered the great talent. Having seen a copy, Frederick Warne decided to publish Peter Rabbit, and within a year he already had to produce six editions to meet demand. This was the start of the most successful children's book series of all times.Helen Beatrix Potter (28 July 1866  22 December 1943), the remarkable English author, illustrator, and natural scientist is best known for her children books. But besides that she had many positive influences on others: With the money, earned through her books, she protected endangered animals, she bought and restored many farms in the Lake District, and helped the (English) National Trust to preserve nature and beauty of landscape. In 2006 a film about her life ("Miss Potter", Title role: Renée Zellweger) came out.

    Deep down at the bottom of the ocean, was the “Land of the Mermaids.” All of the mermaids who lived in this beautiful place looked exactly the same.  Although some might have short hair or long hair, each mermaid was pink with a green tail. One day a little mermaid hatched out of her shell and was different. This littlest mermaid was purple. Young readers will learn a valuable lesson about diversity and acceptance as they read about the littlest mermaid's adventures in a land filled with sandcastles, seahorses, and trees made of coral.
