‘The Tale of Mr Jeremy Fisher’ by Beatrix Potter (C) Aishwary Mehta.
The story behind this photograph – This is a hand made and hand-painted Frog made from recycled Wood and Paper that I found in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, India. From the outside, this is adorned by a very beautiful local artwork and on the inside, it works as a case. This type of several artefacts is a speciality from the state of Kashmir where the local designs several such pieces, where some look like animals while other as beautiful cases. Even if you stay there for a longer period of time you can get yourself customised boxes with your preferred design and artwork over it.

Plot Summary –
The Tale of Mr Jeremy Fisher, like Peter Rabbit, began life as an illustrated letter to a young child. It was written when Beatrix Potter was on holiday in Scotland where her father and his friends enjoyed fishing expeditions. Mr Jeremy has a day full of the worst fisherman’s mishaps when he sets out to catch minnows for his dinner.
About the Author –

My Review –
It’s a tale of Mr Jeremy who wants to invite his friends over for dinner and bring in their favourite dishes. So he goes on to the nearby lake for fishing, but nature has a whole new adventure for him. As he leaves his house he finds himself in trouble but luckily he comes home alive. It’s a very small book and I would say a fun read.
What I liked – Story and Illustrations.
What could’ve been better – Everything was fine.
Writing Style – Simple
23rd BOOK of 2020 (147 books read overall)
