A selection of beautiful Wrendale character animals.  Designed by English artist Hannah Dale. With careful sourcing of fabrics, each of the plush characters in the collection are completely unique and combine high quality soft and tactile materials reminiscent of the animal and Hannah’s original artwork creating the ultimate comforting companion. They are weighted to give a perfect cuddle. Each has it's own character story. From age 3+ to adults. 

Fern the squirrel As a child, Fern dreamed of joining a circus and now puts her acrobatic skills to good use as she scampers through the treetops. Sporty and athletic, she still holds the woodland record for the pole vault. A charming and beautiful redhead, Fern is a social butterfly and a well known influencer, always knowing which are the best trees to be seen in. Her favourite things are fancy dress parties, stone skimming and writing lists.

Elvis: the little owl currently in training to earn 'wise owl' status, one of the most prestigious of all woodland jobs. He takes this very seriously and can often be seen with this beak in a book, or dishing out advice to his fellow woodlanders, whether they asked for it or not. Elvis is very competitive and loves to unwind with a game of chess or a good crossword. He dabbles in a spot of poetry writing and collects celebrity autographs in his spare time.

Mabel Hedgehog works night shifts and loves a good nap. She is always on the look out for a cosy spot to curl up in. A natural leader, she likes to give rousing speeches to her fellow woodlanders and, between naps, is a passionate campaigner for road safety, Mabel's favourite hobbies are needlework and sketching and she loves a good game of scrabble. She takes a keen interest in astrology and considers herself a typical Aries.

Rowan Rabbit is a bit of a daredevil and is always getting up to mischief. He likes to show off and his friends describe him as a bit of a joker, In his spare time he loves cooking and his speciality is carrot an croute. The speediest of all his friends, Rowan loves to tear across fields. He is always on the look for a tortoise for a re-match...

Webster the duck Webster is highly intelligent but distinctly lacking in common sense. Fluent in Squirrel, Rabbit and Sparrow, he can solve an algebra puzzle faster than anyone you know, but will just as easily forget where he left his nest and end up having to build a new one, He is never on time but his friends describe him as the life and the soul of the party, so no one minds when he turns up late. Fun fact - Webster once performed the lead role in the ballet 'Duck Pond'.

Autumn the fox is a true romantic at heart and loves sunsets, long walks and curling up with a good book, Although a little shy, she's always the first to lend a hand to a friend in need, In her spare time she like to collect amusingly shaped pebbles and research her family tree. She loves nature and her perfect day would be a picnic in a flower filled meadow with friends.
