Martin and Godwin not only set up a realistic doll world but also provide a credible mystery. The story gets a wonderful boost from Brian Selznick's pencil drawings...he catches every bit of humor."-- Booklist, "Black-and-white pencil drawings illustrate this lively addition to the doll-fantasy genre."-- Horn Book, "Martin and Godwin inventively spin out their own variation on the perennially popular theme of toys who secretly come to life...Doll lovers may well approach their imaginative play with renewed enthusiasm and a sense of wonder after reading this fun-filled adventure."-- Publishers Weekly, starred review, "A lighthearted touch and a dash of drama make this a satisfying read. Selznick's illustrations are perfectly suited to the innocent charm of the dolls and do much to draw readers into their world."-- School and Library Journal

Synopsis

This wholesome, award-winning classic that has sold more than 1 million copies is written by bestselling authors and illustrated by a Caldecott-winning artist, telling the story of a 100-year-old china doll who discovers surprising friendships and thrilling adventures. The Doll family, beautifully crafted china dolls, has been passed down through four generations of girls in one American family. Annabelle Doll is eight years old and has been for over 100 years. Not a lot has happened to her, cooped up in the dollhouse, with the same doll people, day after day, year after year...until the Funcrafts move in. Unlike the cautious, traditional Doll family in every way, the Funcrafts are carefree and delivered straight from the factory shelves. Tiffany Funcraft is made entirely of plastic and lives in the scariest room of the house, but she's an adventurer and after 100 years of boredom, that's just what Anabelle needs. Especially when she vows to solve a decades-long family mystery. This fresh twist on the beloved genre of doll stories will spark imagination and a sense of wonder in young readers and will send them on a search for the second book in the series, The Meanest Doll in the World ., For use in schools and libraries only. A family of porcelain dolls, that has lived in the same house for 100 years, is taken aback when a new family of plastic dolls arrives and doesn't follow The Doll Code of Honor.

Almost perfect. They sent it out and I got it very quickly. Well packaged. Excellent price. They do good work as a seller. Every disc was clear of issues and played perfectly. Very happy overall. Only 1 disc was missing, but it was only the first 4 episodes so I'm happy, didn't bother contacting the seller because It's not a problem so they might be surprised to see that in the review, beyond that everything was great.

Great Kid's Book
This is a wonderful kid's book that has adorable drawings throughout. Also, the layout of the book is very unique with some of the drawings being integrated into the text on that page. The story itself is very cute and unique and makes a great read for kids and adults alike. All in all, I would totally recommend this book for anyone looking for a fun book to read.

Great Story and Wonderful Illustrations
I bought this book and read it to see if I'd want to use it for a homeschool co-op class I'll be teaching where the kids will make a simple kit dollhouse in the class over the semester, and for a portion of the class, we'll also read this book and have tea parties while we read. Fun! This book will be perfect for this class I have designed, and I did enjoy the story and the characters. The best part about it are the wonderful illustrations and the idea of the story, where the dolls are really alive, but the people whom they live with don't know it. The writing and the characters could have a bit more depth, but overall, they are well-written and interesting. And the plot that the other reviews have talked about and the story interest of Annabelle longing for more freedom and a more ...

And the plot that the other reviews have talked about and the story interest of Annabelle longing for more freedom and a more carefree life, but yet foiled by the overly-carefree new friend she makes are good and held my interest. I do believe that middle grade school kids will enjoy this, and I do think that boys would enjoy the story as well. I liked the plot idea of searching for her aunt who was lost years ago, and the diary that Annabelle finds that the aunt had kept. I'd recommend this book and would have given it the full 5 stars except I believe the writing could have been a bit better and more well-drawn. But overall, a wonderful, inventive story that will hold your interest and keep you wanting to read the sequels, which I know I will do at some point.

The Doll People
For all little girls(even those who grew big) and maybe even some little boys..Remember when you were just positive the dolls you had would come alive at night when you went to sleep? Well, this book is based on that belief. It is about a family of china dollhouse dolls that are over 100 years old.. They have been in the same family their entire life. It's an adventure the young girl and her new friend from a modern Plastic dollhouse family go on to find a missing member of the family.. It may be a bit hard to read for a child younger than 8... but, us old kids can read it to them and remember what it was like to be that age and really, really believe our dolls lived! Delightful..For all little girls(even those who grew big) and maybe even some little boys..Remember when you were just positive the dolls you had would come alive at night when you went to sleep?

Not Just For Girls!
For mid- to upper-elementary students, this book is a winner! I have taught fourth grade for 10 years. A few years ago, shortly after The Doll People was first published, a colleague and I chose it to be one of the featured books in that year's "Battle of the Books" at our school. It was immensely popular with boys and girls alike. We couldn't keep our class copies on the shelf. While not complicated to read, the characters are well-drawn, with plenty of contrasts. Readers relate easily to the main character, a Victorian-era porcelain doll. Annabelle is lonely and frustrated at her overly-cautious relatives who are too timid to seek her long-lost aunt. While exasperated by their conservative outlook, Annabelle is somewhat shocked at the reckless abandon exhibited by her new friend ... For mid- to upper-elementary students, this book is a winner! I have taught fourth grade for 10 years. A few years ago, shortly after The Doll People was first published, a colleague and I chose it to be one of the featured books in that year's "Battle of the Books" at our school. It was immensely popular with boys and girls alike. We couldn't keep our class copies on the shelf. While not complicated to read, the characters are well-drawn, with plenty of contrasts. Readers relate easily to the main character, a Victorian-era porcelain doll. Annabelle is lonely and frustrated at her overly-cautious relatives who are too timid to seek her long-lost aunt. While exasperated by their conservative outlook, Annabelle is somewhat shocked at the reckless abandon exhibited by her new friend Tiffany, a brand-new plastic doll. This tension between Annabelle's wanting more adventure and yet being a sensitive and sensible person creates interest and depth through the events of the plot. The book is primarily a mystery investigating what happened to Annabelle's aunt, and has plenty of cliffhangers in it as the exploring dolls face a dnagerous cat and the possible loss of self-hood if discovered by humans (they would become like other lifeless toys). The black and white softly-shaded illustrations are phenomenal--perfectly matching the story and grabbing reader interest.
