The Tale of Peter Rabbit Ceramic Book Decoration

The Tale of Peter Rabbit has become a very small ceramic book, complete with a pale ribbon, so it may hang where a full-sized volume certainly could not.

The cream front reads The Tale of Peter Rabbit, with Peter standing beneath the title and Beatrix Potter below. At only 5cm high, the little ceramic volume keeps the arrangement of the book cover without needing much room around it.

Loop the ribbon over a suitable branch, hook or peg when a room or tree is being decorated. The book hangs as a small ornament, leaving shelves and tabletops free for the full-sized books.

When the decorations are taken down, the little book can be packed away with the other ornaments and brought out another time. For a reader of Peter Rabbit, that repeated ritual gives the familiar cover a life beyond the bookshelf.
