Product Description
Product Description
There was once a tiny doll who belonged to a girl who did not care for dolls. One day when the little girl was shopping in the supermarket with her mother, she threw the tiny doll into a deep freeze. So the tiny doll had to stay there, cold and lonely, and frightened by people shuffling all the food round her. But someone came along who felt sorry for her, and thought of ways to make her happier, so the tiny doll began to smile again.

This little story is quite magical; my sister and I loved it! We were also happier to go to the supermarket with our parents as there was always a chance that we too might find a tiny doll.....

Imagination starter for a little girl
3 Feb 2010
Format:Paperback
This book is my favorite story of all children's books. A few years back my cousin helped me search for a first American hardcover edition of it because it was the only book from my childhood that I loved. It's about a little girl that rejects a tiny doll and throws it into a frozen food section at a grocery store. The doll entertains herself until another little girl finds her and decides that the doll is very special. She brings the doll gifts every time that she visits the store until finally she asks the lady that works at the store if she can have the doll. The lady didn't believe her that the doll was there until she saw her in the frozen food section. The little girl gets to take the doll home and put her with her other loved dolls. I loved this story so much that every time I went to the store with my mother I looked for a tiny doll in the frozen food section.
