Small helpers share in a tailor's Christmas task
Good Condition - Covers show scuffing and minor edge wear, with toned pages and an owner's name on the endpaper.
A poor tailor must complete an important coat and embroidered waistcoat, but illness and a missing skein of thread threaten to prevent him from finishing the work. His cat Simpkin has interests of his own, while the mice living nearby have reason to be grateful to the tailor. As Christmas approaches, the unfinished garments become the centre of a quietly magical tale. Beatrix Potter fills the story with details of sewing, fabric and the small creatures hidden within a human world. The Tailor of Gloucester brings kindness and skilled work together, following an anxious craftsman whose difficulties reveal the possibility of help from sources he would never ordinarily expect.
