The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin by Beatrix Potter | Read-Along Picture Book & Original Illustrations

A charming old tale by Beatrix Potter, "The Tale of Squirrel Nutkin" deals with a little red squirrel who has no manners when it concerns his elders and what happens to him. This short story has been beloved by children in each generation since it was written, and has been rendered as an audio picture book or audio book for your enjoyment. The text is included to make it a "read along" story for young children or for closed captioning.

Please keep in mind that this is an old story, and may not be written in the way that we would have written it in modern times. There may be aspects of the story that you would wish to discuss with your loved ones. The story was kept just as the author wrote it.

The original book is cited as being in the public domain, along with the original illustrations. The low-res illustrations from the book were lovingly made in higher quality and then integrated with selected watercolor backgrounds through hand painting and finessing in Photoshop. I hoped to bring a more modern aesthetic to the original illustrations that were painted on white backgrounds, back in the days when color printing was very expensive, and make it look more like a modern picture book.

I hope that you enjoy this unique rendition of the book.
