2023 Christmas Mouse Ornament

Hand carved pewter mouse holding a gift-wrapped box, about 3 cm long.

Many children's books have been written about a tiny mouse hoping to steal a crumb from a holiday feast while discovering the love and acceptance of those celebrating, making it an icon of the season. 

The meaning in the classic stories of the Christmas Mouse remind us of the importance of peace and acceptance. Breaking bread and sharing with community celebrating various holiday traditions is a wonderful way to spread PEACE into this world. 

May this sweet little mouse bring you and yours JOY. It was inspired and designed in honour of a local and beloved children's book author and illustrator who joined the spirit world last year on Dec. 25th. His work created magical animal characters to delight children and adults alike for many generations to come.
