Peggy Doll, with bright button eyes and rosy cheeks, will win many hearts.

Sweet Story

I bought this book for my now 12 year old daughter at Christmas about 8 or 9 years ago and it was always her first choice every night at bedtime. She and I new it by heart. I still read it to my 8 year old son. (he loves it too) It is a sweet story with an underlying good moral. The illustrations are wonderful, your child wont let you turn the page because they want to see every nook and cranny of the fold out (not pop-ups which rip) houses. The detail is so interesting without being distracting for a child. I have fond memories of this book. Any child would find it interesting. It is a simple and enchanting book.
