Miss Hickory by Carolyn Sherwin Bailey
Miss Hickory is very worried. Her owner has moved to Boston, and how can Miss Hickory survive a harsh New Hampshire winter all alone? After all, she is just a doll whose body is an apple -wood twig and whose head is a hickory nut, and whose house is made out of corncobs. But Miss Hickory has ingenuity, and the help of neighbors like Crow, Bull Frog, and Ground Hog to see her through. And near the end of those cold, dark months, something unexpected happens to Miss Hickory--something even more welcome than the coming of spring.Carolyn Sherwin Bailey was born in Hoosick Falls, New York, and grew up in Lansingburg, a small Hudson River hamlet. She attended Teachers College, Columbia University, and the New York School of Social Work before beginning her literary career (which resulted in the publication of thirty-five novels). Dr. Eben C. Eben C. Eben C. Eben C. Eben C. Eben C Hill, whose antiques and apple orchard inspired the Newbery Medal-winning book Miss Hickory (1947), lived on Hill Farm in Temple, New Hampshire for many years.
