Peter Rabbit is the beloved fictional character of Beatrix Potter. The little rabbit first came to life in 1902 in The Tale of Peter Rabbit, and a number of books followed in the next few years. Peter Rabbit has only grown more dear to many of our hearts through the many adaptations of the original books on the small and the big screen. That this character was so lovingly created should come as no surprise to anyone who knows about Beatrix Potter's deep and passionate love and understanding of animals.

Beatrix Potter's Peter Rabbit

As not only a writer and illustrator, but also a natural scientist and a pioneering conservationist, Beatrix Potter was throughout her life thoroughly engaged in cultivating the natural world and exploring her own love for all its wildlife. It has been said indeed that she ought to be credited with preserving much of the natural life that is to be found in what is now the Lake District National Park. It is this passion for nature which floods through the character of Peter Rabbit. For many decades the character has been helping little ones tap into the magic of nature and all its beings.
