Pretty Polly Perkins

When little Patty’s beloved china doll shatters in a sudden stair‑case tumble, the comforting world of her grandmother’s kitchen suddenly feels empty. Grandmother King, a widowed seamstress with a talent for turning scrap cloth into treasures, promises to stitch a new companion that can never be broken. Together they set out to gather fabrics, buttons, and gentle memories that will become the heart of a rag doll named Polly.

The story follows their day‑long adventure through the tiny village of Four Corners, where a single general store holds everything from bright ribbons to sturdy twine. As the two women work side by side, the narrative weaves the charm of simple, hands‑on creation with the deeper comfort a handcrafted friend can bring to a child’s sorrow. Listeners will feel the warmth of intergenerational love and the quiet magic that turns ordinary cloth into an everlasting playmate.
