2001 Lionel Plays With Words (Between the Lions)

Celebrate reading, learning and holiday fun with the 2001 keepsake from PBS KIDS’ beloved show Between the Lions! This charming ornament features Lionel the lion holding an open book, surrounded by gift-packages you can spin—and a thumb-wheel on the book’s side allows you to change the pictures in a little window, playing into the show’s theme of words matching pictures. Brightly painted in cheerful hues, the piece appeals to both children and collectors of literacy-themed décor. With its 2001 date and clear model number QXI6902, it stands out as a fun intersection of education and holiday spirit.
