Potter Pets
Introduction
Beatrix Potter, the imaginative mind behind Peter Rabbit, was born in 1866 in Victorian Kensington, London. Growing up in a wealthy household, she lived in a grand home with numerous servants. As a shy child, she spent much of her time alone, under the guidance of her governess who taught her music, art, reading, and writing. Her only regular company was her full-time nurse. Beatrix had one brother, Bernard, who was six years younger and away at boarding school except during the summer.
Summers in Scotland
During June, July, and August, Beatrix and Bernard delighted in the natural beauty of Scotland's Lake District, where their family vacationed. They explored the woods and fields, chasing and sometimes catching wild animals. They sketched these animals in their natural settings, sparking Beatrix's lifelong love for wildlife and the great outdoors. Canon Rawnsley, the local vicar, became a significant influence, sharing stories about the environmental impact of tourism and industry.
Bonding Through Pets
Beatrix’s parents were quite protective, discouraging friendships with local children. This brought Beatrix and Bernard closer. Together, they amassed a collection of animals from the nearby fields and woods, keeping them in their schoolroom. Their collection included a lizard, newts, a snake, a rabbit, a turtle, and a frog, which they both cared for and sketched. These animals inspired the beloved characters in Beatrix Potter's books.
Benjamin Bouncer
One of Beatrix’s favorite animals was Benjamin Bouncer, a bunny she found in a London bird shop. She snuck him home in a paper bag, keeping him a secret from her parents. Benjamin became the inspiration for stories about a bunny who adored hot buttered toast, eagerly running into the living room whenever the tea bell rang, knowing it meant toast time too.
Peter Piper
Another creation, Peter Piper, was based on the antics of their favorite rabbit, purchased in Belgium. This buck rabbit loved lounging on the rug by the fireplace. Beatrix and Bernard enjoyed crafting tales of Peter Piper, who learned tricks quickly, jumped through hoops, rang bells, and even played the tambourine.
Through their summer adventures and beloved pets, Beatrix and Bernard Potter forged a bond that fueled Beatrix's creativity, giving life to the enchanting animal characters cherished by readers around the world.
