Illustrated by
Helen Craig.
While playing house in a hollow tree, Rosy hosts a crowd of visitors, including a rabbit, a stuffed bear, and some diminutive fairies. After her guests depart, Rosy returns to her "real" home for supper. Not a lot happens in this simple story of a young child's imaginative play, but the detailed, pastel-colored illustrations lend the pleasant story an appropriately old-fashioned air.
