Many Happy Birthday Ms Potter <3

Again, if Ms Potter had been living she would have been 155 today. So, the chances of her being so here, are limited. However that’s not the point.

We can celebrate probably the most well known Children’s Author (that didn’t turn into a complete raving lunatic).

When I was a littler, in my younger years, I did ballet. We did a Beatrix Ballet Concert, and I was Mrs Tittlemouse and I was very good, may I say. I was very proper and lady like =D

I don’t have a favourite or most disliked Potter character. I do though find Peter Rabbit overrated, lol. There are so many good characters in Potter’s world. Just ignore the whole “Potter was the JKRowling of her day” Ugh.

Happy Birthday Beatrix Potter!

In Australia, it’s #BeatrixPotter birthday today…What is your favourite Beatrix Potter character? If it is Peter Rabbit (lol) whose your next favourite? I once played Mrs Tittlemouse for a ballet concert =D When I was little, I used to be obsessed with the Beatrix Potter ballet movie. Just like The Red Shoes, it was kind of scary and I wonder why my parents let me watch it,lol. You have the Owl kidnap Squirrel Nutkin, take his tail, and gives him a wink as he leaves. Than Mr Fox, steals Jemima Puddle-Duck egg, to eat and tries to eat her as well, and Mister Jeremy Fisher, almost gets eaten alive by fish,lol.

Throwback…Right to the childhood

I have just always presumed that people always read http://www.peterrabbit.com/about-beatrix-potter/ as children (and “older” children as well) but not everyone has! Can you believe it?!

Beatrix Potter is probably known as the creator of characters such as:

Peter Rabbit
Mrs Tiggy-Wiggle
Jemima Puddle-Duck

Peter Rabbit – The 23 Original Tales

I found reading through the Guardian and I found an article of “Unseen Beatrix Potter illustrations discovered in stately home” and there are some gorgeous drawings.

Also check out this test: “Which Beatrix Potter character are you? I am The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin =/ Better watch my tail!

Oh my goodness! I am SO excited! I seem to be the only person I’ve met so far that is excited about this news. They have found, after a hundred years, they have found ANOTHER Beatrix Potter manuscript!
