The Birthday Doll

32 pp. | Farrar | March, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-374-30719-9 $$16.00
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Hiroe Nakata. Franny receives two dolls for her birthday: Rose, a fancy, frilly new doll who sings the same song over and over; and Suzie, a well-loved old rag doll. Rose's charms begin to fade when it's time for bed, while Suzie proves soft and cuddly--and a friend. The simple, old-fashioned story is rewarding, and the illustrations, in which pinks predominate, are sure to please certain little girls.
