I chose this book because there was a silhouette picture on the front cover. It is a JF book about a doll sent from Japan with a group of "Friendship Dolls" in 1927. Each section of the book is a vignette of a different girl and a different time period and the effect the doll has on her. At first, I wasn't sure I liked the book, but then I kept noticing how well the author could give a flavor of the time period with just a few descriptions and words from the period. She also writes well.
This is a definitely a book for anyone who likes dolls or who likes time periods or who just wants to study writing.
