作者简介

Beatrix Potter, born Helen Beatrix Potter on July 28, 1866, in Kensington, London, was an English writer, illustrator, natural scientist, and conservationist best known for her children's books featuring animals. Potter's vivid imagination and her keen observation of nature were evident from an early age, skills she honed throughout her life. Her literary journey began with the now iconic 'The Tale of Peter Rabbit,' which, after initial rejections, was self-published in 1901 and later picked up by Frederick Warne & Co. This tale went on to become a children's classic, leading to a series of books that include 'The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin,' 'The Tale of Tom Kitten,' and many others. These narrative treasures are celebrated for their detailed illustrations, anthropomorphic animal characters, and charming rural settings. Potter's literary style was remarkable for its combination of whimsy and realism, speaking to both children and adults. Throughout her career, she composed a landmark collection, often anthologized as 'The Complete Works of Beatrix Potter,' capturing the pastoral essence of the English countryside. Beyond her storytelling, Potter was also a respected natural scientist and a passionate advocate for land preservation; she used her earnings to purchase and conserve vast tracts of farmland and countryside, which she later bequeathed to the National Trust. Beatrix Potter remains a beloved figure in children's literature, with her tales enduring in popularity for their universal appeal and her legacy in conservation continuing to inspire environmental stewardship. She died on December 22, 1943, in Near Sawrey, Lancashire, but left behind a rich world of stories that continue to capture the imaginations of readers around the globe.
