I always loved Peter Rabbit and the other characters. I had a Peter Rabbit theme in the bedroom when my oldest was born.

If you have kids or grandkids, I highly recommend this collection of Beatrix Potter DVDs put out by the BBC. Very entertaining, calm, high production value. The kids loved these and almost wore them out. We passed them on to my sister in law, whose kids also love them (although we kept “The Tailor of Gloucestershire” for ourselves, to watch at Christmas). When grandkids eventually come along, we’ll have to get another full set.

Years ago, English television had a mini-series on her starring Penelope Wilton. Wonderful artist and writer. It seems she was influenced by Leonardo in her study of anatomy.

Not enough transgendered, non-binary, asexual, poly-queer rabbits.

Too bad this completely ignores her scientific illustration (still used in fungal ID) and her role in identifying the symbiotic relationship between fungi and algae.
