Description
Beatrix Potter’s The Tailor of Gloucester tells the story of a poor tailor tasked with making a waistcoat for the Mayor’s wedding on Christmas morning. Falling ill and unable to complete the work, the tailor returns to his shop to find the waistcoat mysteriously finished, save for one buttonhole. Unbeknownst to him, a group of grateful mice he had previously spared had completed the task. Potter considered this her favorite among her works, and the story is based on a real-life incident. ?
