It''s been 110 years since Frederick Warne published Beatrix
Potter''s very first book, "The Tale of Peter Rabbit", and in
celebration, we are delighted to be publishing special editions of
her entire body of work. Unlike the traditional little white books,
these editions have delightful colourful covers and specially
designed endpapers. And to make them extra special, we have
included a publisher''s note to tell you all about the history of
how each book came to be. Do you ever feel that the grass is
greener on the other side of the fence? Well, so do Johnny
Town-mouse and Timmy Willie. One is a town-mouse and one is a
country-mouse, and when they end up in each other''s worlds, they
soon discover that they were much happier where they started! "The
Tale of Johnny Town-Mouse" is number 13 in Beatrix Potter''s series
of 23 little books.
