I chose to read this book as it is amongst the top rated free books Apple Store is offering. Even at this age, I enjoy children books from time to time, just for the sake of remembering the old times...

This was a very cute story. Would you believe I've never read any of Potter's books before? Crazy, I know.

The best thing about Beatrix Potter's stories is that her animals are both adorable and a little sassy.

I maintain a nostalgic fondness for these books, but they're pretty weird. Bunnies in clothes? The little girls are treated more as bunnies, while Peter gets a human name, and more human behavior.

Inspired by Ramblefoot, a gritty, naturalistic, no-holds-barred depiction of the lives of wolves, I couldn't help wondering if similar treatments weren't possible for other classics. Here's an extract from my draft rabbit novel, provisionally entitled Nojacket:Peter finished his breakfast, but the i...
