Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Read-Aloud Treasury Library Binding – Picture Book, November 1, 2005

ok

Love it, it is as advertised! I recommend it! 5 stars

I was very excited when I found this book. I have raddedy Ann and Andy dolls that are antiques and wanted to give them to my granddaughter for her birthday. This book allowed my daughter to be able to read stories about these two.I hated that the book was damaged!!!!I do not have time to return this book before her birthday party . The packaging was not damaged therefore I know it was damaged previous to packing!!I would like to add to my review. The book itself was absolutely awesome. It will be a wonderful addition to the dolls!!!! I also would like to give thanks to amazon prime! I decided to return the original book and in doing so the new book was at my home expeditiously!!!

This is to let potential buyers know of the contents of this book, since at the time of this review there was no mention of which stories were included, or even how many.The first page of the book includes a table of contents. There are ten short stories within:01. How Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy Came to Marcella's House02. The Nursery Dance03. Raggedy Ann Learns a Lesson04. Raggedy Ann and the Painter (the story where Ann gets her candy heart)05. Doctor Raggedy Andy06. Raggedy Ann's Trip on the River07. The Taffy Pull08. Raggedy Ann and the Strange Dolls09. Raggedy Ann's New Sisters10. The Singing ShellEach story begins with a full two-page spread containing a full page color illustration on the left; and on the right, the title of the story with a smaller illustration beneath it.Each story is about 4-7 pages long, with illustrations approximately every other page. I counted only four places in the book where there was not a picture on either the left or the right side, just text.All in all, I am quite satisfied I made the perfect purchase to introduce my daughter to the stories behind the Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls she just received for Christmas.

Looks fantastic…can’t wait to give this to my granddaughter

Grent stories and the illustrations are old fashioned which is good for the look but does keep children's interest in this day and age.

I was so excited to find these stories for my daughters and to learn the full history of the Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls.

We ordered these books to give as gifts to my 9 year olds' fellow cast members in The Nutcracker during the gift exchange at the cast party. They were all the gingerchildren in the 2nd act and their costumes looked just like Raggedy Ann dolls so we thought this would make a perfect gift. My daughter already owns both the Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy dolls, and also has all the stories, but I know that most do not know about the dolls and especially the stories. I was not sure if the stories in this book would suit these children's age ranges (8-9l, but it was perfect. We were all very pleased, and was also a good value, being a hardcover book with beautifully colored illustrations.
