The Tale of Hill Top Farm: The Cottage Tales of Beatrix Potter #1 [B0158]

2004 HCDJ 1st edition. The cottage tales of Beatrix Potter. The author of Peter Rabbit and other tales, Beatrix Potter is still, after a century, beloved by children and adults worldwide. In this first Cottage Tale, Albert introduces Beatrix as an animal lover and Good Samaritan with a knack for solving mysteries. With help from her entourage of talking animal friends, Beatrix sets out to win over the human hearts of Sawrey, where she's just bought an old farm--and plans to stay.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Such a fun story with tidbits of Beatrix Potter's life and elements of her tales woven into the narrative. And a cozy little mystery too. So much to enjoy here."; "Cozy. Wholesome. Edwardian. Talking animals. Quaint village life. Mysteries. Beatrix Potter. Lots of tea. Yes please!"; "This is a very readable story - sensitive, aware of different goals and those who share them. Also good about friendships. I am in my 80's and enjoyed it and bought it for a great-granddaughter who is 8 years old."
