What's not to like about an introduction by Patricia Routledge + narration by Andrew Scott?!

Beatrix retold such a lovely listen!

This book honorifically, truthfully, beautifully, comically, wondrously, and dutifully gives us a seat a the table of the to parse with Beatrix Potter and peer into her magical world with fresh perspective - truly that of childlike wonders.

ok

Nothing remarkable. I expected a lot more. Maybe it is better with the illustrations and makes more sense

Perfection

Ah, my childhood brought back to life in front of me! I feel like a kid again

Potter and Scott!

The tales we loved as children perfectly narrated. My kiddos love to listen to this at bedtime. (We skip Jemima Puddleduck and one other because they find them disturbing.) But otherwise delightful tales expertly interpreted. We especially love the way he whispers “the end” after each one- somehow makes it all feel more magical.

I listen to be lulled to sleep

Andrew Scott's acting skills come through with a great narration of classics I used to read to my kids. Now someone else reads to me:)
