A New Chapter: The Magic Feather

Some partnerships just feel right. At Paper Tiger, we’ve been working closely with Catherine Rayner for more than a dozen years. In that time, we’ve seen her work grow and evolve, but her ability to capture the soul and spirit of animals and nature with a single brushstroke remains as captivating as ever. For me, Catherine’s work is also the definition of a 'genuine connection'; represented by the working connection we have developed over time, the creative connection that Catherine has with her stories and her artwork, and the emotional connections that turn a greeting card into a treasured keepsake.

Right now, we're particularly excited to have Catherine’s newest project, 'The Magic Feather,' on Paper Tiger's shelves. The book, written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Catherine, is a beautiful story about finding confidence and your place in the world. It’s a wonderful addition to any bookshelf, blending Julia’s iconic storytelling with Catherine’s atmospheric artwork.

Alongside the book, we’re delighted to have a brand new range of Catherine Rayner greeting cards in our collections. The new designs all carry a meaningful message, and feature colourful, foliage filled illustrations. Fans of her work will appreciate the attention to detail in every single leaf! In our opinion, Cat's cards are perfect for sending something that feels a bit more personal and thoughtful. All the shops currently feature window displays celebrating the ranges of greeting cards, books and babywear created by Cat!

It’s been a joy to support Catherine’s work for more than a decade, and we’re proud to have these new pieces on our shelves.
