Most of the world’s best books, the ones whose stories are timeless, are found in almost all of the world’s great libraries both digitally and printed. They were written long enough ago that they now are in the public domain. Yet, many of them remain undiscovered–collecting digital or real dust.

myRead is about bringing the great classics back to life through digital magic wielded by artists, actors, musicians and animators.

 Beatrix Potter

Helen Beatrix Potter (28 July 1866 – 22 December 1943) was an English author, illustrator, natural scientist and conservationist best known for her imaginative children’s books, featuring animals such as those in The Tale of Peter Rabbit, which celebrated the British landscape and country life.  [Photo taken at about age 47]

Potter Countryside

With the proceeds from the books and a legacy from an aunt, Potter bought Hill Top Farm in Near Sawrey, a tiny village, then in Lancashire, the English Lake District near Windermere, in 1905. Over the following decades, she purchased additional farms to preserve the unique hill country landscape.
