Four Jeremy letters were written at about 1910 to Drew Fayle who thought Jeremy should marry. In one letter, Sir Isaac promises Master Fayle a piece of wedding cake should Jeremy marry and, in another letter, Ptolemy writes that Jeremy's parties "would be much more agreeable if there were a lady to preside at the table." Jeremy writes in the third letter: "When I bought my sprigged waistcoat & my maroon tail-coat I had hopes ... but I am alone ... if there were a 'Mrs. Jeremy Fisher' she might object to snails. It is some satisfaction to be able to have as much water & mud in the house as a person likes." Once upon a time, there was a frog called Mr. Jeremy Fisher; he lived in a little damp house amongst the buttercups at the edge of a pond..."

So-called children’s author are not always what we think they are. I have discovered this many-a-times before, and again now. But that makes this writer more interesting and her books more appealing. To a kid, a butterfly sandwich and a lady-bird sauce will be pretty scandalising and sad. This made the story eerie, and not to mention the edge of fear which was woven through the story and deceptively disguised by the cute illustrations. I did not read Beatrix Potter while growing up. I discovered her in a seminar in a museum, and loved the illustrations. From what the seminar conveyed, her writings have more varied shades. And she is much more interesting now.One of Beatrix Potter's most popular and well-loved tales, this mischievous little rabbit has hopped into the heart of generations of book lovers.
