Beatrix Potter is regarded as one of the world's best-loved children's authors of all time. From her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902) she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including Mrs Tiggy-winkle, Mr Jeremy Fisher and Tom Kitten. Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood. A source of inspiration was the Lake District where she lived for the last thirty years of her life as a farmer and conservationist.

Reviews for The Tale of Two Bad Mice: The original and authorized edition

What made me happy is that the best work in this book is deliberately about capitalism and its processes on the voiceless other, and it is by those authors who bring us closest to the resisting and exploited lives of others: immigrant Jews, overseas Chinese, conquered Irish, victimized Malagosh. - Mark P. Leone, University of Maryland, Journal of Anthropological Research, vol. 56, 2000. <br>
