I must say i really like the movie Miss Potter. This movie is about an author of children's literature from the early 1900s. I particularly like the sets and the costumes in the movie, very Victorian.
I am sure most of us have at least some memory of Peter Rabbit back from our childhood days. Be it our daily reading books or our bed time stories, its nice to see them back in this movie. Its hard to believe that the first edition of this book is actually published in 1902!!!! Yes.... and its published in colour! Very cool.....
Anyway, the original 1902 copy is now a collectors item and the last time i checked it out on the net, it is worth more then US $8000.
For those without deep pockets, there is a movie commemorative version selling for about SDG$14. It can be found in MPH or Kinokuniya bookstores. This commemorative version is a hardcover copy made to look close to the original 1902 edition with its small size.
