Really sweet book
If you love dolls and dollhouses, this is your book. A rich detailing of the inner lives of dolls who have feelings and can communicate with each other about their hopes and fears. I read this when I was a girl and I have never been able to give away any of my dolls! A really sweet dear book. I was really happy to reread it again.
