MoreThis is a magnificent cloth-bound limited edition of "The Tale of Timmy Tiptoes", individually numbered and packaged in a unique handmade leather box which also contains stamped certificate of authenticity, an eight-page colour booklet on the history of the tale, and leather bookmark. This book is published to celebrate the centenary of the book's publication in 1911. After a terrible misunderstanding, poor Timmy Tiptoes ends up deep inside the trunk of a dead tree, with no means of getting out. Luckily, the chipmunk who lives there is very friendly and kind to Timmy. Before long, a strong wind blows the top off the dead tree trunk, but poor Timmy can't get himself out on account of eating far too many nuts and being a little bit too round. Beatrix wrote this story to appeal to her American fans and featured animals of American origin (grey squirrels, chipmunks and a black bear) all living happily in the Lake District woods.
