Written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter (1866-1943). Her passion for the natural world lay behind the creation of her famous little books. A particular source of inspiration was the Lake District where she lived for the last thirty years of her life as a farmer and conservationist. Hill Top was the working farm Beatrix Potter owned in England's historic Lake District and the setting for a delightful sequence of animal tales. Full-color illustrations.
