The Tailor of Gloucester by Beatrix Potter

This is a quick conversion from Gutenberg's HTML format, so not
sure about quality. Should include the illustrations though. For
the author see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatrix_Potter

In short, these are short stories for children revolving around animals.

Wow, that was quick. Hang on a sec, still adding.

Colour? Hmmm, yeah would be nice. Also bigger display.

i don't know, i tend to consider these books quintessentially small-format. they're perfect that way.

To be honest I just discovered her from a movie ad, Miss Potter
Not sure how big illustrations are and how well they fit on my Cybook 6" screen.
Anyway I have a 3 yr old who doesn't listen well while I am reading, so perhaps these illustrations might attract his attention.
