![]() ![]() Tiggle-Winkle was designed by Orla Kiely - an Irish contemporary designer known for her unique retro prints and designs. This edition is part of a collection of five books designed by iconic British and Irish fashion designers to celebration the 150th anniversary of Beatrix Potter. Lucie spends a lovely day helping her, and it's only right at the end of the day that she realises Mrs Tiggy-winkle is a hedgehog! She knocks on the tiny door, and meets Mrs Tiggy-winkle who does all the washing and ironing for the neighbouring animals. ![]() It is discovered one day by a little girl called Lucie, who is in search of her missing pocket handkerchiefs. It tells the tale of a hidden home high in the hills. The Tale of Mrs Tiggy-winkle was first published in 1905, and is as charming today as it was then. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But Emi is only 9, and Hana, seeing the soldier drawing ever closer, plunges into action. Too young to dive with her mother and sister, Emi is left to watch the buckets filled with the day’s catch and keep them safe from hungry seabirds. While her mother is hunting abalone under the waves, Hana spies a soldier approaching Emi on the shore. But the summer of 1943 brings with it danger worse than drowning: Japanese soldiers. Each mother passes on her tradition to the next generation of girls, instilling in them a sense of pride and independence that makes them strong and resilient. Their special status allows them the freedom to gather and profit from their hard work. Hana and younger sister Emi are haenyeo, a special caste of diving women who harvest from the sea and live outside the bounds of traditional Korean patriarchy. Bracht’s disturbing piece of historical fiction beautifully weaves together two sisters’ wartime tragedies, creating an all at once engaging – and sometimes fantastical – portrayal of World War II “comfort women.” You will become invested in these characters such that every travesty perpetrated against them is reflected in yourself. Sometimes only a single tear – others, a small river. You will cry reading Mary Lynn Bracht’s White Chrysanthemum.
