Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of a family of dolls who live in a ramshackle, old-fashioned dollhouse. The dolls, once grand and fashionable, have fallen into disrepair and are considered outdated by their young owner, Cynthia. However, the dolls, led by the cheerful Peter Piper, find joy in their shabby existence and remain optimistic despite their circumstances. The author masterfully weaves a heartwarming narrative about the power of resilience and finding happiness in unexpected places. The dolls, despite their lack of modern amenities, are able to find joy in simple pleasures, such as playing games and telling stories. This book offers a delightful exploration of the enduring power of imagination and the importance of finding joy in the ordinary, even when faced with the challenges of changing times.
