But someone came along who felt sorry for her, and thought of ways to make her happier, so the tiny doll began to smile again.Reissued in 'A Puffin Book' series of Puffin modern classics, this simple story with charming black and white drawings by Edward Ardizzone is a perfect book for young children.
