- It"s been 110 years since Frederick Warne published Beatrix Potter"s very first book, The Tale of Peter Rabbit, and in celebration, we are delighted to be publishing special editions of her entire body of work. Unlike the traditional little white books, these editions have delightful colourful covers and specially designed endpapers. And to make them extra special, we have included a publisher"s note to tell you all about the history of how each book came to be. Ginger and Pickles (a ginger cat and a terrier) keep a very popular shop. Their customers love to buy their provisions there, but they are somewhat less keen to pay for them, and run up a great deal of credit, making poor Ginger and Pickles" lives very difficult indeed. The Tale of Ginger and Pickles is number 18 in Beatrix Potter"s series of 23 little books.
