The Tale of Peter Rabbit

Lear writes that Potter ``had in fact created a new form of animal fable in: one in which anthropomorphic animals behave as real animals with true animal instincts'', and a form of fable with anatomically correct illustrations drawn by a scientifically minded artist. She further states Peter Rabbit's nature is familiar to rabbit enthusiasts ``and endorsed by those who are not ... because her portrayal speaks to some universal understanding of rabbity behaviour.'' She describes the tale as a ``perfect marriage of word and image'' and ``a triumph of fantasy and fact''.
