The story of a sawdust doll

by Laura Lee Hope

“Do you think, Daddy, I’ll ever have a real rocking horse?�

“Well, I shouldn’t be surprised if you did,� was the answer. “What kind would you like?�

“A white one,� the boy answered. “Just like the one I saw in the store where Dorothy’s Sawdust Doll was bought.�

“We’ll see,� promised Daddy.

And whether the little boy got his wish you may find out in the book that comes after this. It is called “The Story of a White Rocking Horse,� and it tells about the many adventures he had.

As for the Sawdust Doll, she lived with Dorothy for a number of years, and you may be sure many things happened to her—more than I have room to tell of in this book.

So I will say good-bye now, but I shouldn’t be a bit surprised if you heard something more about the Sawdust Doll, as well as about the White Rocking Horse.

THE END
