the doll people


By Eskimo M - Posted on 12 November 2009

I just started to read this really amazing book called The Doll People. It's about real China dolls that live a secret life of coming to life. Whenever the humans are away, the dolls can move around as they please.

It's a little easy, but it's a great book. I recommend it to anyone who likes magical books. It is called The Doll People, and can be found in the Denali school library.

The main event that happened in the story was that Annebelle (main doll) had an Aunt Sarah who was missing after going out of the doll house (risking her life). She loves to find spiders and see how they live, but then Aunt Sarah got trapped and couldn't return to the doll house, being absent for 45 years.

Then one day Annebelle was bored because she didn't have any friends, so she looked around in her room and found a special journal that happened to belong to her Aunt Sarah who was missing. Annebelle looked through the journal hoping to find a clue about where her Aunt was. When she went looking for her Aunt with her brother and uncle, she found another doll family that was a birthday present for one of the humans.

Annebelle met Tiffany, who was part of the Funcrafts family. Annebelle was no longer bored and she had a friend to help her find Aunt Sarah. Tiffany was all plastic so Tiffany could not break the way Annebelle can. Thanks to Aunt Sarah's journal, Annebelle and Tiffany fond her Aunt.

It was a really great book and I think that anybody would love it. It is by Ann M. Martin who wrote many books.
