Pollyanna

I brought Pollyanna Grows up about six weeks ago at a book fair. Before that I never knew there was a sequel to Pollyanna. The Pollyanna book in the photo has a lot of drawn pictures in it and is not the same one I read years ago.

This is a Pollyanna doll which is 74cm high and has a replaced wig and is not wearing the original dress.
