Jeremy Fisher character jug produced by Beswick of Longton, England, in 1987. "The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher" is a children's book, written and illustrated by Beatrix Potter and published by Frederick Warne & Co. in July 1906. Jeremy Fisher is a frog that lives in a "slippy-sloppy" house at the edge of a pond. During one rainy day, he collects worms for fishing and sets off across the pond on his lily-pad boat. He plans to invite his friends for dinner if he catches more than five minnows. He encounters all sorts of setbacks to his goal, and escapes a large trout who tries to swallow him. He swims for shore, decides he will not go fishing again, and hops home. The large trout forms the handle of the jug.
