This deluxe collection brings all twenty-three original tales together in the small, pocket-sized hardback format they were always meant to be enjoyed in, making it a wonderful way to introduce a new generation of readers to these classics. Inside you will meet every much-loved character, from mischievous Peter Rabbit sneaking into Mr McGregor's garden and his cousin Benjamin Bunny, to roly-poly Tom Kitten, silly Squirrel Nutkin and poor Jemima Puddle-Duck. Alongside the famous animal adventures sit gentler stories such as The Tailor of Gloucester and quieter favourites like The Tale of Mrs Tittlemouse, plus two collections of nursery rhymes to round out the set. Each of the twenty-three books features Potter's own beautifully detailed watercolour artwork and her warm, gently humorous storytelling. Every volume includes a short publisher's note describing the origins of the tale, adding context for grown-ups sharing the stories at bedtime. Presented in a sturdy, collectible box, the set is designed to be treasured, displayed and handed down through the years. Ideal for bedtime reading, early literacy, storytime at school and quiet moments together, it is equally at home as a christening, birthday or Christmas gift for the youngest readers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComplete collection:\u003c\/strong\u003e all 23 original Peter Rabbit tales together in one presentation box set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIconic format:\u003c\/strong\u003e small hardback volumes with the classic white jackets and Beatrix Potter's original watercolour illustrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtra context:\u003c\/strong\u003e every book includes a publisher's note on how the story was created\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect gift:\u003c\/strong\u003e a timeless keepsake for christenings, birthdays, baby showers and Christmas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupports early reading:\u003c\/strong\u003e gentle, characterful stories ideal for bedtime and storytime with young children\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBeatrix Potter (1866-1943) is one of the world's best-loved children's authors and illustrators.

Each title in the set hones in on a particular sound pattern: The Ugly Duckling explores the short 'u' sound, Rumpelstiltskin practises 'ar' alongside secondary blends like 'sp', 'sk' and 'st', while The Elves and the Shoemaker works on s-blends and sounds such as 'oi' and 'st'. Alongside firm favourites like Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Hansel and Gretel and Goldilocks and the Three Bears, the set also includes lesser-spotted retellings such as Puss in Boots and Beauty and the Beast, giving children a wonderfully varied library of tales to explore. Every story is brought to life with warm, expressive illustrations that keep young readers engaged from cover to cover, while consistent formatting across all 20 books means children quickly become familiar with the reading routine — key words to learn, a picture dictionary to reinforce vocabulary, and rhyming text that supports natural reading rhythm. Perfect for bedtime, classroom reading corners, or independent practice, this collection is a fantastic way to consolidate phonics learning while enjoying timeless stories that have delighted generations of children.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e20 individual paperback storybooks, each focused on a different phonics sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic fairy tales retold in accessible, rhyming language for early readers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes key words and picture dictionaries to build vocabulary\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsistent structure helps children build reading confidence and independence\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA wonderful gift set for beginner readers aged 3-7\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact paperback format, ideal for little hands and home libraries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis collection is written by Rosie Greening, an experienced children's author known for creating engaging, accessible stories that support early literacy.
