For years, Hua has delighted the children in her town by making them beautiful handmade dolls. One day, Hua decides that she is too old and too tired to make any more dolls. What happens then to a young girl who desperately needs one? First published in China, and translated from Chinese, this remarkable original story is written by Hans Christian Andersen Award-winning author Cao Wenxuan, and features unforgettable illustrations in mixed media by Zhao Lei. “It is a story that tells us of dedication to one’s craft, and perfection therein. It will appeal to young children from age 3 onwards up to 6 years. It makes for great gifting as well! ‘Daisy Dolls’ will be a pleasant read, over and over again!” (Booked for Life) “Every once in a while, I come across a book that seems so sublime, that I wonder if it was written just for me. Picture books like this are for everyone, younger or older children and even adults! There is so much about this book that I absolutely love! The wonderful handwork that goes into each doll, the detailing, the feeling, the love.” (Myth Aunty)
