Shakespeare’s comedies
A collected volume of Shakespeare’s works: rich, ironic and endlessly rereadable. The kind of book Emma might keep on hand for times when just a perfectly turned sentence (or a dramatic soliloquy) will do. A gift for readers who love the language that has shaped the centuries. If only we could find a copy illustrated by Declan Lion, but I’m afraid it’s truly one of a kind.

Jane Eyre
Charlotte Brontë’s classic is exactly the kind of novel Emma would recommend when you need courage, principle, and a heroine whose quiet resilience refuses to be overlooked. A perfect gift for anyone who loves stories with depth, romance and moral stability. I can almost guarantee this wasn’t stolen thanks to any of Jack’s deceptions.

Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
Stevenson’s Treasure Island it’s pure adventure: lively, brilliant and full of audacity. The kind of tale Emma might read aloud on a windswept evening, delighting in every twist and turn. A wonderful choice for readers who want maps, mysteries, and a bit of swashbuckling spirit.

A set of pen and ink
A pen and ink set suitable for anyone who wants to write with a touch of ceremony. Exactly the kind of writing utensil Emma might keep on her desk for letters that require attention, elegance or a bit of old-fashioned romance.

Reading diary
These reading journals are so fun and have quotes from the books on the back cover. This is a gift that would delight any fellow bibliophile.

Wax seal stamp
A regal wax seal is both practical and delightfully dramatic. Emma would certainly approve of sealing an important correspondence with something that conveys dignity, courage and even just a hint of mystery.

Boxed diary set
A beautifully packaged journal set, ideal for recording reflections, daily observations and the occasional extraordinary moment. The kind of gift Emma would put in the hands of a friend with gentle encouragement to write things down before they vanish. These beautiful journal covers reminded me of book covers!

Ball cap “Good”.
A soft and understated baseball cap embroidered with the word Islington uses to say a lot. Perfect for readers who appreciate a subtle nod to the books they love and who appreciate an accessory with just the right amount of tongue-in-cheek understatement.

San Crispiano sweatshirt
How cute is this San Crispiano sweatshirt? The subtitle says “where things wander to be found”. It’s available in fourteen different colours, so it’ll be easy to find an Emma M Lion fan favorite on your Christmas list. (I got this for my 13 year old son’s birthday this weekend!)

The Reed and Rite Long Sleeve Shirt
I love comfy long sleeve t-shirts and this one with the Reed and Rite logo is perfect. With seventeen colors to choose from, you might have to choose two!

The Alchemy zip bag
A charming zip pouch with the names Islington, Hawkes, Pearce and Lion would be ideal for pens, notes or small necessary items. It’s the kind of handy little item Emma would tuck into her bag, delighted whenever she saw its silent nod to her circle of friends.

Emma M canvas tote bag with lion
This bag is sold on Beth Brower’s website and is so fun. Jen from my team brings this bag to church every week and it’s a fun nod to all the Emma M Lion fans in our neighborhood.

Recipe book for afternoon tea at home
This cookbook would be perfect for hosting a tea party that Agnes could be proud of. If you read one of the journals for your book club, it would be great fun to have a tea party to discuss the books.

Emma M. Stack of lion bracelets
For my birthday, one of my friends (who is also an Emma M Lion lover!) gave me a stack of beaded bracelets, one for Emma, ​​one for Islington, one for Pierce and one for Hawkes. I knew we were kindred spirits when he said “obviously the beige one is for Islington”. Ah!

Lion head bookend
It’s hard to believe this after reading the series multiple times AND listening to every audiobook, I still don’t own the physical books! I’m determined to change that and these bookends would be the perfect finishing touch. They would be stunning on any Emma M. Lion lover’s shelf.
