Jim's Spectacular Christmas (signed copy) signed bookplate edition.
A new Christmas classic from a magical pairing: Dame Emma Thompson and Axel Scheffler.
The story of Jim: a very lucky, very special, very grubby dog, who lives, improbably, in the Victoria and Albert Museum.
Emma Thompson magically weaves the real-life tale of Jim - beloved
dog of Sir Henry Cole who created the first Christmas card - with a
fantastically warm and heartfelt Christmas romp, brilliantly illustrated
by bestselling illustrator, Axel Scheffler.
A Christmas book to treasure, and an adventure filled with high
emotion, guilt, redemption, unexpected presents and a life-changing
brush with royalty.
AND
Jim the dog Christmas Decoration a V&A Museum Exclusive handmade in Nepal for the London V&A Museum.
This is Jim, faithful and beloved companion of Sir Henry Cole, the first director of the V&A in 1857.
Jim
passed away in 1879, and was buried in the V&A’s Madejski Garden,
where there is a commemorative plaque dedicated to him.
From
Cole’s diaries, we learn that Jim was frequently by his master’s side,
and invariably accompanied him to work, where his behaviour could be
somewhat disruptive: 'Sunday, 11 January 1874. In Museum with Jim, who
barked as usual.'
Created specially for the V&A, this felt decoration is handmade in Nepal by skilled artisans.
