This time, Katy will come first,
This review is from: Katy comes next (Hardcover)
This was one of absolute favorites when I was little. It's a nice picture book that would be good for girls about 3 to 7 years old.Ruth is little girl whose parents own a doll hospital. She has always been proud and fascinated by how her parents can make old or damaged dolls beautiful again. However, Ruth's own beloved doll, Katy, is in need of repair herself. As her parents rush around repairing dolls for their customers, they keep assuring her that Katy's turn will come next. After being put off repeatedly, Ruth starts to think that poor Katy will never get the attention that she needs. When Ruth's parents realize how discouraged she is, they decide to take a day for Katy to come first. The book has pictures alternately in black and white and color that show the process that Ruth's parents go through to repair Katy, repaint her features, and give her new hair and eyes. Ruth also gets to pick out an entirely new wardrobe for Katy. I was always fascinated with the description of how Ruth's parents fixed the doll, and I enjoyed imagining the doll clothes that I would have selected from the ones they showed in the pictures. |
