A pioneering author and illustrator, her work is a celebration of British nature and countryside. Her global success allowed her to protect and conserve her beloved Lake District home for generations to enjoy and celebrate. This beautifully illustrated picture book tells the story of Beatrix's life and the countryside she cherished.

Author Information

Linda Elovitz Marshall grew up near Boston, graduated from Barnard College, and raised four children and a flock of sheep on a farm in the Hudson Valley of New York. She is the author of several books for young readers. Marshall lives with her family in Selkirk, New York. Ilaria Urbinati is an illustrator who lives in Italy in a nice city near the mountains called Turin. Like Beatrix, she draws all the time, but she uses a computer and her watercolours (she loves them!),. She enjoys taking long walks in a nearby park. There, she meets squirrels and birds, and pets every dog and cat she comes across. She has no rabbit, but her dream is to live with a cat in a house full of books and paintings.
