The Doll People (Hardcover, 1st ed)

Annabelle Doll is eight years old -- she has been for over a hundred years. Not a lot has happened to her, cooped up in the dollhouse, with the same doll people, day after day, year after year . . . until the Funcrafts move in! Now Annabelle has a friend. Sure, she’s made entirely of plastic and she‘s living in the scariest room in the house, but she’s an adventurer, and after a hundred years of boredom, that’s just what Annabelle needs. When a secret diary surfaces, these two unlikely friends venture into the exciting and dangerous world outside the dollhouse to unravel an age-old mystery. This masterfully plotted adventure by Ann M. Martin and Laura Godwin is illustrated throughout with remarkable black-and-white drawings by Brian Selznick.

Ann M. Martin is the author and creator of the best-selling Baby-sitters Club, as well as several other series. She has also written many other books for young readers, including Leo the Magnificat, and P. S. Longer Letter Later, co-written with Paula Danziger. Ms. Martin funds such charities as The Lisa Libraries and The Ann M. Martin Foundation. She makes her home in upstate New York.

Laura Godwin, also known as Nola Buck, is the author of many popular books for children, including Barnyard Prayers, The Flower Girl, Little White Dog, Christmas in the Manger, Creepy Crawly Critters, and Sid and Sam. Born and raised in Alberta, Canada, she now lives in New York City.

Brian Selznick is the illustrator of Barnyard Prayers by Laura Godwin; Frindle by Andrew Clements; and Riding Freedom and Amelia and Eleanor Go for a Ride, both by Pam Muñoz Ryan; as well as his own books, The Boy of a Thousand Faces and The Houdini Box, the latter the winner of the Texas Bluebonnet Award. Mr. Selznick lives in Brooklyn, New York.
