The Very Little Princess

The Very Little Princess #1: Zoey's Story (A Stepping Stone Book(TM))
Zoey doesn't know she has a grandmother until the day she and her mother suddenly leave Minneapolis for a drive to the country and grandmother's house. Almost immediately, Zoey's mother and grandmother start arguing. Zoey escapes by running upstairs to a bedroom where she discovers a dollhouse with a tiny doll inside.  When a tear from Zoey's eye falls on the doll, it sneezes and comes to life.  Now, Zoey has dreamed that someday one of her dolls would come to life. But in her dreams, the doll didn't order her around like a servant. Here is the latest from Marion Dane Bauer, a story of friendship, family, love, loss, joy, and humor for good measure.  Girls will love it.
