Fanny by Holly Hobbie

Fanny is this adorable little girl in hightops and sneakers who, when faced with difficulties in obtaining a "Connie" doll, decides to use her skills and make her own. Firstly, this book has a great story line and the underlying theme is very strong. Secondly, the illustrations are adorable. Thirdly, her mother gives her a SEWING MACHINE for her birthday. Hooray!

This is definitely one of those worth-while reads because I have not seen any books on similar topics as of yet, plus my little really liked the story line and we read the book over and over and over and over.
