Read the text and answer the questions: Helen Beatrix Potter H. B. Potter has written a very interesting book "Peter Rabbit". It has become the most favourite children's book of all times. Beatrix loved summer very much because her family went to the country. She and her elder brother could watch different birds and animals there. She drew pictures of frogs, mice, rabbits, snakes. Then she started to draw these animals in funny clothes. One day she found a rabbit and took him home. They became friends. Beatrix never was alone then. When she grew up she spent summer in the country, too. When one of the boys was seriously ill she sent him her stories and pictures about Peter Rabbit.
