First off, let me say thank you to Pengiun Group (USA) and Peter Rabbit for this great Giveaway for all of my Freebies and Much More readers!
After receiving this adorable set, I can honestly say that I love Peter Rabbit even more. I grew up on Peter Rabbit and Beatrix Potter's other characters such as Benjamin Bunny and Tom Kitten. So as you can tell, this was quite nostalgic for me. Not only are these items cute (especially the rattle), I would like to mention the fact that these items are all better for the environment, better for mothers and children, and better for the people who make them! You don't find too many companies in today's world that care this much. It's great to promote them when they come around...thus this Giveaway!
These Eco-friendly products really work wonders on your skin...however, I actually enjoyed The Tale of Peter Rabbit Special Edition book the most. Why you ask? Well, as I said above, I've loved this character since I was a child. I owned the book when I was little and of course, tore it to pieces, drew in it, and probably ate off of a few pages. It's what kids do!! I'm glad to have this copy to give to my kids...I'll just be hovering over them like a hawk so it stays in pristine condition. =-)
(1) Winner will receive the Eco-Friendly Peter Rabbit Gift Set. This gift set includes the following items:
- The Tale of Peter Rabbit Special Edition Classic Book ($6.99)
- Peter Rabbit™ Organic Shampoo and Body Wash (8 oz./ $9.99)
- Peter Rabbit™ Organic Intense Therapy Cream (2 oz./ $11.99)

Peter Rabbit is one of my favorite books, my daughter loves it so much that she named our little bunny "Peter" so cute :)
When I was young I loved the stories of Beatrix Potter and when I was in England I was able to travel to the Lake District and the farm where she livet. It was a beautiful place to visit.

This isn't MY memory, but that of my boyfriend's sister. Her mother start collected Beatrix Potter books after McDonald's ran a promo in the 1980s. Alison (her daughter) fell in love with Peter the Rabbit, so from there on--people would always give her trinkets or books. Even her great-aunt from England whom she had never met. Which leads me to my son, this was the same gift that the great-aunt gave my son. We still have all the books and trinkets to pass along and around to our children.
I have read these books to my children since they were little. I would love to win!
Peter Rabbit is one of my favorite books. And I have read this book so many times to my daughter and, my daughter loves it so much
