Beatrix Potter is regarded as one of the world's best-loved children's authors of all time. From her first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902) she went on to create a series of stories based around animal characters including Mrs. Tiggy-winkle, Mr. Jeremy Fisher and Tom Kitten. Her humorous, lively tales and beautiful illustrations have become a natural part of childhood.A source of inspiration was the Lake District where she lived for the last thirty years of her life as a farmer and conservationist.

Etat : Used. Once upon a time in a quaint, overly idyllic world where anthropomorphic animals indulge in the most peculiar pastimes, Beatrix Potter summoned forth a character that could only be described as a furry antihero of sorts: Samuel Whiskers. This delightful tale?originally penned with a quill dipped in whimsy and possibly a hint of mischief?takes readers on a journey that is as charming as it is mischievous. Set against a backdrop of rustic charm that practically oozes innocence, Samuel Whiskers is a cat with dreams far grander than merely napping in sunbeams or chasing tail. His aspirations, however, are as questionable as a cat?s ability to resist a laser pointer. This tome captures a feline filled with aspirations and questionable ethics, leading us through a series of events that are as unpredictable as a toddler?s nap schedule. Forget what you thought you knew about cat breeding; Samuel is not your average tabby. In the world of Potter, our whiskered protagonist concocts plans that would make even the cleverest mouse raise an eyebrow?if mice had eyebrows, that is. His escapades involve a motley crew of characters, including various rodents who, let?s be honest, are probably not the most sensible allies for a cat with delusions of grandeur. This cavalcade of critters navigates a veritable minefield of domesticity, where the stakes are as high as the catnip plants in a well-to-do gardener?s backyard. What makes this story so delightfully ironic is the juxtaposition of the innocent illustrations with the rather alarming undertones of cat-and-mouse dynamics. You might find yourself chuckling unapologetically while pondering the ethics of feline ambition. Can we truly condone Samuel?s exploits? Or are we merely enchanted by his devil-may-care attitude and charming demeanor? Questions for philosophers, perhaps, but readers will find themselves enraptured nonetheless. As you embark on this journey with Samuel Whiskers, prepare to encounter a world where the lines between predator and prey blur faster than a cat can bat a ball of yarn. Each page is filled with whimsical illustrations that may or may not be hiding deeper existential crises lurking beneath the surface. What does it mean to be a cat with aspirations? Will Samuel ever learn that ambition can lead to trouble, especially when you?re perpetually in pursuit of a snack that may or may not involve a chase? Delve into the psyche of a cat with aspirations?one paw at a time. Marvel at the charmingly ironic illustrations that may leave you questioning your love for cats. Gain insight into the often-overlooked emotional struggles of household pets. Consider the moral implications of whiskered ambitions on a global scale. Unravel the domestic dynamics seen through the eyes of a cat with questionable ethics. Condition: This second-hand treasure has been enjoyed by previous readers who may have left behind the scent of nostalgia mingled with mild disarray. Expect creased pages that tell tales of past adventures and a cover that has seen more than its fair share of coffee stains. It embodies a charming blend of well-loved and slightly battered?a bit like Samuel himself. Whether you?re a Potter aficionado or simply someone who enjoys a whimsical romp through the animal kingdom with a side of irreverent humor, ?The Tale of Samuel Whiskers? promises to tickle your fancy and perhaps make you reconsider your views on the ambitious nature of our furry friends. Available now at Crappy Old Books, where every title tells a story, and every story has a history that may or may not be slightly dubious. THIS BOOK BEARS THE CRAPPY OLD BOOKS STAMP. IF THAT IS UNDESIRABLE PLEASE DO NOT BUY THIS. THE STAMP MARKS WHICH IS USUALLY TO THE FRONT AND BACK INNER PAGES SAYS SOLD BY CRAPPY OLD BOOKS WITH WEB SITE URL. IT IN NO WAY DEMINISHED FROM THE READING. IF YOU WANT A PRISTINE BOOK, PLEASE FIND ANOTHER BOOK IN BETTER CONDITION SOMEWHERE ELSE. N° de réf. du vendeur 1957
