Mildly interesting illustrations, the text is quite repetitive with authors often making nearly the same comments.

A great collection of letters discussing how Beatrix Potter influenced these illustrators art, storytelling, and childhood.

This was a book I picked up at the library and ended up buying a copy for our home before we even finished the book. It is such a beautiful collaborative tribute to a beloved author/illustrator. Now that we have finished the book we’re going to go back through it and find other books illustrated by the contributors. Some we know well, while others are completely new to us. This is a perfect book for spring!

This is a lovely tribute to the work of Beatrix Potter. I enjoyed the stories and illustrations told in homage to her talents and hard work, and the short excerpts of her original tales brought back a ton of memories. The variety of contributions ranged from fond memory to recent discovery.

Made me want to revisit Potter's stories.

Absolutely gorgeous. If you at all enjoy Beatrix Potter's work, this book should be part of your collection!

Liked the illustrations of different artists/illustrators.
I only knew of Peter Rabbit by its character, but never knew the whole story.
It makes me want to read all of her work.

Beautiful illustrations. I think this is a good read for any Beatrix Potter fan, but not necessarily an essential for library collections. Fun to flip through.
