THE BOOK ITSELF IS A WONDERFUL STORY FOR YOUNG CHILDREN AND AS AN ADULT I ENJOYED IT'S HUMOR AND THE FACT THAT THE DOLLS ARE GIVEN HUMAN EMOTIONS.
THE BOOK ITSELF ARRIVED RIGHT ON TIME AND WAS IN THE SAME CONDITION THAT WAS DESCRIBED BY THE OWNER. OVER ALL i WAS VERY PLEASED WITH MY PURCHASE.

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.
