When Christmastime rolls around, even a family's dolls have an opportunity to create a magical, festive celebration--with a little help from their young mistresses, of course. The sweet, old-fashioned text is accompanied by watercolor illustrations with a similar tone. An extensive note from the author explains the origins of the tradition of creating a dolls' Christmas and its meaning for her own family.
