This article in the New York Times led us to discover Literature in Miniature:
No book lover can possibly resist LiteratureinMiniature.co.uk. This site prints high-quality books in one-twelfth scale (a standard size for miniatures). Page after page, they recreate text and illustrations. Some followers of the site build entire libraries. Volumes for sale include “The Canterbury Tales,” “Gulliver’s Travels,” “Pride and Prejudice,” “Jane Eyre and “Mrs. Beeton’s Household Management.” A book called “Old Country Cookery” contains recipes like Casserole of Partridge, Vinegar Cake and Jugged Hare. (J. Courtney Sullivan)
This is their Jane Eyre:
Jane Eyre was written in 1847. This story is said to be somewhat autobiographical as Charlotte Brontë worked as a governess herself. Illustrated with tiny pen and ink drawings.
Size: 0.8" x 0.62 x 26 pages.
