A review by cjcrannie
Elizabeti's Doll by Christy Hale, Stephanie Stuve-Bodeen
4.0
4.5*
The only thing I wish about this book is that it had a Black author. It’s a beautiful little story about a little girl who, after seeing how her mom tends to her new baby brother, wants a baby doll of her own.
As a white woman, I have no right to speak on the accuracy of village life for a young girl in Tanzania, so please be sure to look into other picture books by Black authors if you’re looking to diversify your library or personal reading!
