Will Peter see the Loch Ness monster?

I wonder if Peter Rabbit will go to Edinburgh Zoo to visit the Pandas

I have just googled you and gone into Penguin Publishers and found that 'Two sumptious new Peter Rabbit Books' will be available, but not yet, to the public for the magnificent sum of £110 . Crikey Emma - poor Beatrix Potter must only have dreamed of a sum like that . I'm not sure what to think about a new Peter book. I think things are well left alone. I have read one or two other follow-ups by modern authors and have felt - well - disappointed. I'm sure it will be a lovely tale but I think I am inclined to say just let Peter Rabbit remain the Peter Rabbit we Grans have in our minds and let him rest! (Although once I have read/seen the book I may change my mind.........

Hello Emma. I wonder, do you remember your first meeting with Peter Rabbit, or was he always 'just there' with you from when you were a child and you have no memory of how or when he came into your life?

Gally check out the link here and you may be reassured.

do you think it might be time for Peter to have a girlfriend or perhaps a boyfriend?

Would Nanny McPhee approve of this new book? I think she would

I would like to ask Emma whether she was torn between writing and acting when she started her career?

Hello Emma

I would like to ask what your reaction was when you were approached to write the book? Following in the footsteps of Beatrix Potter must have been a scary prospect.

Thank you

Does the 'new' Peter Rabbit book contain illustrations by you or your lovely mother (she looks as though she ought to be able to draw!)?

What is the age of Peter Rabbit now. Is he a "boy" or a "man"?

What do you think makes the 'magic' Peter Rabbit is so loved for?

Is Finlay, the giant rabbit that Peter meets when he is in Scotland based on someone we know like Robbie Coltrane or Billy Connolly as you "acted" with both in the latest Pixar film Brave?

Slainte!

Did you run your ideas for the book past your daughter before finally deciding on a story?

Thanks Cari I shall reserve judgement and start saving for the cheaper version!
I would just like to say to Emma - a propos of nothing - that The Winter Guest which she made with her Mum some few years ago, is absolutely my most fave film of all time, probably partly because the area is so familiar to me as is the weather (!) but also the story line is close to my heart. If I want to have a good old blub and a laugh, I watch it and achieve all emotions /
