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.
