- Synopsis
- From the book: IMPUNITY JANE was a pocket doll. She hated living sedately in a doll's house, and when Gideon took her off adventuring with Joe and his gang she was blissfully happy. She rode on trains, sailed in model yachts, and flew in toy aero planes and in between, lived in Gideon's pocket, with all kinds of interesting objects and the snail Ann Rush out. But Impunity Jane didn't belong to Gideon. What would happen if ever he had to give her back to the little girl whose doll she really was? THE FAIRY DOLL had been with the family for a very long time. It was Great grandmother's idea to give her to Elizabeth, the youngest child, who was always in trouble for being naughty or clumsy. Elizabeth was always late, always untidy, she couldn't ride a bicycle or remember a shopping list, and the other children teased her and ignored her. But with the Fairy Doll to help, she found that gradually she could do all these things, and more. Could it be magic? HOLLY was a doll, and Ivy was a little girl. Their story is about wishing-for Holly wished very much that she could be a Christmas present, and leave the toyshop where Abracadabra the owl frightened her, and Ivy, wished for a grandmother who would give her a real home. How could these wishes come true? CANDY FLOSS belonged to Jack, who's fairground stand. She loved her life her friends; Jack himself, Nuts the dog, and Cocoa the horse-Candy Floss sat on Cocoa's back and went round and round when Jack played the old musical organ underneath, Then came the day when rich, spoiled Clementina stole Candy Floss. What could the poor doll do?
