They had their tea party in that rundown, ramshackle, and
downright "creepy" house. There were Bab and Betty and most of a
dozen of their worn-down dolls, and no matter how worn-down or
"creepy" this place might seem to you and I, for these girls and
their dolls, it was the most wonderful place for a party any of
them could imagine.
Then that monstrous dog had stolen all the food, and by the time
they chased it down, it'd eaten the last crumbs! They followed the
dog back into the decrepit barn, and that was how they met its
master, a circus run-away, Ben Brown. Ben turned out to be a horse
master. . . .
