Product Information

Good-day, Babbitty Bumble; I should be glad to buy some bees-wax. But what are you doing down here? Why do you always come in at a window, and say, Zizz, Bizz, Bizzz?” Mrs. Tittle-mouse began to get cross. Then he squeezed into the larder. Miss Butterfly was tasting the sugar; but she flew away out of the window.

Emma Noble, a Royal Mint engraver, designed the reverse side of the coin to feature the image of the famous Mrs Tittlemouse. The lowercase initials EN grace the bottom of the mouse's gown, delicately positioned towards the coin's lower right. They serve as an emblem of the designer. Such a funny house! There were yards and yards of sandy passages, leading to storerooms and nut-cellars and seed-cellars, all amongst the roots of the hedge. The 2018 Mrs Tittlemouse 50p is one of the rarer Beatrix Potter commemorative 50p coins in circulation in Britain today with just 1.7 million released in 2018. Mrs. Tittlemouse followed him with a dishcloth, to wipe his large wet footmarks off the parlor floor.

Header illustration adapted from illustration by Beatrix Potter Let’s Chat About The Stories ~ Ideas for Talking With Kids In The Tale of Mrs Tittlemouse, Mrs Tittlemouse’s only wish is for her house to be clean and tidy, however, all her unexpected guests are not helping her at all. Mrs. Tittlemouse went on her way to a distant storeroom, to fetch cherrystones and thistle-down seed for dinner. The story chronicles the hardships of the wood mouse Mrs. Tittlemouse, who tries to keep her home tidy. She turns away unwanted visitors: beetles, a ladybird, and a large spider seeking shelter from the rain. Along one of her passageways she runs into Babbitty Bumble, a bumblebee, and in a storeroom she comes across a nest of four more bees, whom she is unable to remove. The 2018 Mrs Tittlemouse 50p coin was released in 2018 and is one of the fifteen coins minted in the Beatrix Potter 50p series between 2016 and 2020.

The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse was originally produced by Potter in the form of a book with a leather cover. It was given to.Nellie Warne, the young daughter of Potter's Publisher, Harold Warne as a New Year's gift. [2] Adaptions [ edit ] When he had convinced himself that there was no honey in the cupboards, he began to walk down the passage. SUCH a funny house! There were yards and yards of sandy passages, leading to storerooms and nut-cellars and seed-cellars, all amongst the roots of the hedge.He sat outside in the sun, and said—”Tiddly, widdly, widdly! Your very good health, Mrs. Tittlemouse!” And indeed it did. The little mouse spent the next two weeks cleaning up all the mess that her unwanted visitors had left behind. She scrubbed down the storerooms, rubbed the furniture with beeswax and polished her tin spoons until they shone like new.

These adorable little animals, while small in size, have strong personalities, charm, and flaws. They are perfect for littlies to start reading, or classics enthusiasts, or for those reminiscent of the childhood. Mrs Tittlemouse takes pride and joy in her housekeeping, but unexpected guests turn her home into a mess (She’s the Monica Gellar of Potter’s animal-world). The little mouse is courteous but firm when having to defend her home. Beatrix Potter makes her creatures have relatable human qualities, and the ability to teach young ones morals in a sweet and simple form. Once upon a time, a little wood-mouse called Mrs Tittlemouse lived in a house hidden among the roots of a hedge. There was a kitchen, a parlour, a pantry, a larder and lots and lots of sandy passages, leading to storerooms and cellars where she tidily stored all the nuts and seeds she found. All the 2018 Beatrix Potter 50p coins had a relatively low mintage with the rarest 50p coins in the Beatrix Potter series being the 2018 Peter Rabbit and the 2018 Flopsy Bunny 50p coin, which both have a mintage of 1.4 million. To complete the series that year, the 2018 Tailor of Gloucester 50p had a mintage of just 1.7 million,
