Book/Movie of the Week
We are having a little Beatrix Potter Study over here…
First we went to see the new Peter Rabbit movie, and really enjoyed it, then we watched Miss Potter together and now we are brining a couple of these tiny books home from the library each week.
I have to say I thought they would be quite tricky to read and I have been yearning after the audible version of the Complete Collection for ages. Recently, we started taking a handful out of the library each week delightful and engaging stories are being read and throughly enjoyed by all of us. There is a reason these books are classical classics… they really are fun. Get some from the library and read them… they are sweet. Otherwise, we are so inspired by the beautiful illustrations… our nature notebooks are rocking it this year.
That’s us… hope you have the most fabulous week!!!
Always FUN your fun posts!Waving back to you from Slovenia!
