This was a quick and very satisfying read. Nothing monumental really happens - but it a very sweet story about a little girl getting used to a new town where her family has some rather old history.
Syd Stowe was a city person, and when it was time to leave New york and her best friend Jill, she wasn't happy at all. But Syd soon found a friend in her new small Midwestern town, and everything seemed to be fine...until she discoverd the secret of the ghost dolls. Why did her new best friend, Laura, look so much like a doll that had lived a long, long time ago? And what was the connection between Laura and the old man who made the dolls? As Syd investigates and solves the mystery, she learns some valuable lessons.
