Summary
Nine-year-old Anna and her sisters like helping out in their parents’ doll repair shop because, once their chores are done, the fun can begin. The girls are allowed to play carefully with the dolls until they’re fixed and ready to be returned to their owners. But when World War I begins and an embargo on German-made goods threatens to put the shop out of business, it’s up to Anna to come up with an idea to save the day.
