The Best-Loved Doll by Rebecca Caudill
Newbery and Caldecott Honor-winning children's author Rebecca Caudill tells the timeless and charming story of the special relationship between a girl and her doll in The Best-Loved Doll, featuring illustrations by Elliott Gilbert.
Betsy receives an invitation to a party requiring her to bring a guest--one of her dolls--for a chance to win a prize or two in several "best of" categories.
But while many of her dolls are prettier to look at, wear fancier clothes, and are capable of doing things, Betsy cherishes Jennifer most of all. Her hair may be a bird's nest, she may wear drab, plain clothes, and her face may not have the most beautiful complexion, but Jennifer is Betsy's very best friend--the doll she loves the most.
Rebecca Caudill (1899-1985), author of almost twenty children's books, including The Best-Loved Doll and A Particular Little Shepherd, died in 1985. Every year, the Rebecca Caudill Young Readers' Book Prize honors Caudill's contributions to children's literature.
