WRITERS AND THE JOURNAL (7)... BEATRIX POTTER (born Helen Beatrix Potter; 28 July 1866 – 22 December 1943) was an English author, illustrator, natural scientist and conservationist best known for her imaginative children’s books featuring animals such as those in The Tale of Peter Rabbit which celebrated the British landscape and country life.) ***** Best known for creating the beloved children’s book The Tale of Peter Rabbit, Beatrix Potter was also an avid notebooker. Before she ever published famous furry-tailed tale, she kept a journal where she would write on topics ranging from philosophy to politics, often including cut-outs and sketches that would coincide with her writings. Much of what she wrote was actually in code so that her mother wouldn’t be able to understand what she was writing about. Her journal has since been published and is readily available for purchase.
