Vintage 1929 Marcella A Raggedy Ann Story By Johnny Gruelle Book Condition: - Shows heavy age, wear and use.

Whimsical illustrations capture the joy and simplicity of Raggedy Ann's world, transporting you to a magical place you will want to visit again and again. The original author of the stories, Johnny Gruelle, based Raggedy Ann on a doll that belonged to his daughter, Marcella (or possibly a much older rag doll that had been passed down through the family, the story varies). This very special story collection, a tribute to Johnny Gruelle's daughter, Marcella, has been lovingly restored to delight a new generation of readers. Raggedy Ann leads her friends through each exciting adventure with a dose of humor and kindness. In the end it is the dolls' love for one another - and Marcella's devotion to her dear friends - that is the true magic in this book. Raggedy Ann leads her friends through each exciting adventure with a dose of humor and kindness. They also make friends with a new doll named Squeakie, and a mischievous puppy, Rags, and get lost at sea on a sailboat. Nighttime is when the dolls come to life, so once Marcella is tucked in bed, Raggedy Ann and the rest of the dolls embark on a series of adventures, including a magical encounter with fairies.

It's summertime, and Marcella packs up her beloved dolls, Raggedy Ann and Andy and all their friends, for a trip to the seashore. Raggedy Ann, Beloved Belindy, Uncle Clem and Raggedy Andy sat very, very quiet, their cotton-stuffed bodies tingling as happily as Johnny Cricket's cheery tune, for they had looked through the door into Fairyland.
