I never heard of anybody being afraid of dolls. Not liking them, sure, but afraid of them? That's sure a new one on me. :) Oh well, I'm the one who nearly had a heart attack at age four when I unexpectedly ran across an older cousin's belt that had big black tassels on it. That thing scared me near to death!

The book is called "Hitty" and it's by Rachel Field. Hitty tells the story herself, all about her adventures and various owners from the time a peddler made her from ash wood up in Maine.
