From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 3-- An introduction to the actual life of the wild animals found in Beatrix Potter's books, although here in full size with full color. Baker introduces in simple prose the English countryside seen from the mouse's-eye view of the title characters. They are not fearful prey when they observe predators, but simply observant bystanders whose job it is to take note of the wild residents of the expansive country that Baker sets as his purview. The text is simple, with an occasional extra comma. The pictures are large and detailed, with full backgrounds of natural fauna in colors so vivid as to verge on the fantastic. The countryside is neat and clean, with none of the real mud that even armchair tourists know can be found in such haunts. The distant backgrounds are occasionally whited out to emphasize the animals and flowers that frame the pictures quite decoratively, and the perspective is sometimes exaggerated, giving a surreal, dreamlike experience of things out of scale. A lovely coffee-table book for Anglophiles. --Ruth K. MacDonald, Purdue University Calumet, Hammond, IN
