Book Synopsis

Annabelle Doll lives in a dollhouse with the rest of her family -- they've lived there for over 100 years. Nothing very exciting happens, and just when Annabelle thinks she will die of boredom, the Funcrafts move in.

Publishers Weekly

This novel, named a PW Best Book of 2000, introduces the Doll family, who has lived in the same dollhouse, in the same room of a family's home for 100 years. "The authors provide plenty of action and suspense, but it is their skillfully crafted details about the dolls' personalities and daily routines that prove most memorable. A fun-filled adventure free from nostalgia," wrote PW in a starred review. Ages 8-12. (Sept.) Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
