About the Author
Beatrix Potter was born on July 28, 1886, in Kensington, London. She--an author, illustrator, natural scientist, and conservationist--is best known for her imaginative children's literature that celebrated British country life.
Potter originally wrote The Tale of Peter Rabbit for her ex-governess's five-year-old son, who was very ill. From such a simple beginning, the story has sold more than 40 million copies, and, as a result, Beatrix Potter has become one of the most acclaimed children's book authors of all time.
