À propos de cet audio

There aren't many books more beloved than The Tale of Peter Rabbit and even fewer authors as iconic as Beatrix Potter. More than 150 million copies of her books have sold worldwide, and interest in her work and life remains high. And her characters - Peter Rabbit, Jemima Puddle Duck, and all the rest - exist in a charmed world filled with flowers and gardens. Beatrix Potter's Gardening Life is the first work to explore the origins of Beatrix Potter's love of gardening and plants and show how this passion came to be reflected in her work.

The audiobook begins with a gardener's biography, highlighting the key moments and places throughout her life that helped define her, including her home Hill Top Farm in England's Lake District. Next, the listener follows Beatrix Potter through a year in her garden, with a season-by-season overview of what is blooming that truly brings her gardens alive. The audiobook culminates in a traveler's guide, with information on how and where to visit Potter's gardens today.
