Happy Birthday Beatrix Potter!

Sit your little ones around the computer today and click to play some delightful games in her honor. When you are done, brew a good cup of tea and spend a little time poking around the site and get to know the real Beatrix Potter. Need a good Summer movie? Do buy a copy of the 2006 Miss Potter movie starring Renée Zellweger and Ewan McGregor (It is listed in my ever-changing favorite things list on the left side of this blog.) It is, well, magic!

I thought I'd add a link to a wonderful archived post from Clarice's lovely Storybook Woods blog for you to read to further celebrate the day. It is by guest blogger Susan Wittig Albert. Enjoy! -CS ^..^
