A review by ruthmoog
The Tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle by Beatrix Potter
lighthearted
medium-paced
3.5
On one level this is a cute twee story about a little girl stumbling on a launderette run but a hedgehog, where the garments relate to qualities of the animals Lucie met.
But as an adult, its so bizarre, was BP high?! Lucie actually not that likeable, just rocks up to Mrs T's home, scares her and doesn't introduce herself instead she's like "Who are you?" Rude. And Mrs T is kinda nervous and subservient. I want Mrs T to be empowered!
So yeah, cute, weirder than I remembered, not the most empowering of stories.
Solid tip for people who keep losiytgeir handkerchiefs 🤷🦔
