This review is from: Dolls Aren't Just for Kids, The Ultimate Guide for Doll Lovers (Paperback)
Dolls Aren't Just for Kids provided me with a few hours of fun entertainment with a subject that is close to my heart.This book takes you from a story set in Nova Scotia to The Strawbery Banke Museaum in Portsmouth, N.H and The Museum of Childhood. It contains information on displaying your dolls and creating press releases for local newspapers. Art dolls are my favorite and Joyce Miko, President & Executive Director of The Academy of American Doll Artists, Inc. and The Visual Arts Academy of Concord was one of the informative chapters that helped me get in contact with this group. They put on various events and workshops throughout the year and they have all levels of artisans. The book also helped me find some outstanding doll websites that lead to more information of doll shows, supplies and artists opportunities. Anyone who loves dolls and likes to read stories about other doll lovers and their dolls will enjoy this book.
