Everyone knows that Beatrix Potter created Peter Rabbit and friends, but what’s lesser known is she began drawing Peter and other characters in letters she sent to the son of her former governess. The letters were filled with little drawings of anthropomorphic animals that bear more than a passing a resemblance to Peter and her other classic characters.
