The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin" is an original classic by Beatrix Potter. Beatrix Potter's famous tale of a naughty squirrel who loses his tail is as popular today as it was when it was first published over 100 years ago. Join Nutkin his brother Twinkleberry & all his cousins as they make their way over to Owl Island to gather nuts. See what happens when Old Brown the terrifying owl guardian of the island decides he has had enough of silly Nutkin's cheekiness! Ouch!! Beatrix Potter is regarded as one of the world's best-loved children's authors of all time. From her first book " The Tale of Peter Rabbit" published by Frederick Warne in 1902 she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including " Mrs. Tiggy-winkle" " Benjamin Bunny" " Jemima Puddle-duck" " Mr. Jeremy Fisher" & " Tom Kitten". Her humorous lively tales & beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood. With revenue from the sales of her books Beatrix Potter bought a farm
- Hill Top
- in the English Lake District where she later became a farmer & prize-winning sheep breeder. She launched the now vast merchandise programme by patenting the very first Peter Rabbit doll in 1903. The product range continues to grow today with licences around the world including baby clothing & bedding nursery decor products & collectables. Upon her death Beatrix Potter left 14 farms & over 4000 acres of Lake District farmland to the National Trust so that the place that she loved would remain undeveloped & protected for future generations to enjoy.
