Books with title The Jemima Puddle-duck Pop-up Book

(Helen) Beatrix Potter (1866-1943) was an English author and illustrator, botanist, and conservationist, born in Kensington, London best known for her children's books, which featured animal characters such as Peter Rabbit. Educated at home by a succession of governesses, she had little opportunity to mix with other children. Potter had frogs and newts, and even a pet bat. The basis of her many projects and stories were the small animals that she smuggled into the house or observed during family holidays in Scotland and the Lake District. She was encouraged to publish her story, The Tale of Peter Rabbit (1902), but she struggled to find a publisher until it was accepted when she was 36, by Frederick Warne & Co. The small book and her following works were extremely well received and she gained an independent income from the sales. Potter eventually wrote 23 books. These were published in a small format, easy for a child to hold and read. Her writing efforts abated around 1920 due to poor eyesight.

The Tale of Jemima Puddle-Duck is brought to life with new sound technology. Musical sounds included on each spread enhance the classic story of Jemima Puddle-Duck, her ducklings, and a certain foxy gentleman. This technology integrates sounds right into the book without any clunky buttons. The interactive sounds include: bunnies melody, pit pat, paddle pat pit pat, waddle pat, clucking, newspaper crackling, door creaking, dog barking, and ducklings tweeting.

A Beatrix Potter original children's story. The story of a duck named Jemima who lived on a farm and was annoyed because the farmer's wife would not let her hatch her own eggs. Other hens didn't mind as it was a long and hard affair to sit on them until they hatched. First Jemima tried to hide the eggs. Next she decided to lay them far away from the farm. In the woods she met a fox who offered to help. She laid the eggs in the woods and the fox offered to watch over them until she returned from the farm. Back on the farm she happened to tell her story to the farm dog who knew all about Mr. Fox. I won't reveal what happened as you will have to read the book to find out if Jemima was able to hatch her own eggs.
