The Doll People

$6.00

Trade cloth edition in very good condition. Dust jacket with intact price point. Mylar Cover included. Ages 6-9.

Annabelle Doll is 8 years old—and has been for over 100 years. Nothing much has changed in the dollhouse during that time, except for the fact that 45 years ago, Annabelle’s Auntie Sarah disappeared from the dollhouse without a trace. After all this time, restless Annabelle is becoming more and more curious about her aunt’s fate. And when she discovers Auntie Sarah’s old diary, she becomes positively driven. Her cautious family tries to discourage her, but Annabelle won’t be stopped, even though she risks Permanent Doll State, in which she could turn into a regular, nonliving doll. And when the “Real Pink Plastic” Funtrack family moves in next door, the Doll family’s world is turned upside down—in more ways than one!

The relationship between the two doll families, one antique, one modern, is hilariously, wonderfully drawn. The Funcrafts are reckless and raucous, with fearlessness born of their unbreakable plastic parts. The Doll family is reserved and somewhat prim, even though they occasionally break into 60s tunes in their sing-alongs.

Annabelle is a heroine with integrity and gumption.
