The Curious Adventures of the Abandoned Toys

(4) 1-3 Illustrated by S. D. Schindler. This story follows teddy bear Doc and several other toys that have been discarded by their owners, depicting the hierarchy and camaraderie that develops among them. Calling to mind The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, the book is quaint and slightly too precious--from the Velveteen Rabbit premise to the butter-color paper to the delicate line-art--but it's a pretty package.
