In Anna’s family, dolls are more than toys. Downstairs from their home in New York City, her parents run a doll repair shop, where broken dolls are carefully mended and returned to the children who love them.
Anna and her sisters enjoy helping in the shop, especially when their chores lead to time with the beautiful dolls waiting to be fixed. But when World War I begins, German-made doll parts become hard to get, and the family business is suddenly in trouble. Anna may be young, but she has an imagination strong enough to search for a solution.
Inspired by the history of Madame Alexander, The Doll Shop Downstairs is a gentle historical chapter book about family, creativity, and problem solving. Young readers will enjoy its cozy setting, sisterly warmth, and glimpse of life during wartime New York.
