Dools

"She might not be new, 

but she's still my best doll."

Emily had always been Kate's best doll. Kate played with her every day and took her to bed each night. Emily told the other toys proudly, "I'm going to the hospital with her because she's having her tonsils take out." Next morning, Kate sat nervously on her bed, hugging Emily. Then, the door opened and Kate's parents came in. They bought her a present. The present was a new doll which walks and sings named Florinda. Kate felt delight but Emily and the other toys was a bit lonely.

One day, Florinda was singing loudly and proudly. Kate's parents thought Florida was annoying so they tried to stop but she didn't do and continued to sing the tinny voice. Kate's mother felt it was strange and told Kate "You'll just have to take another toy."

Then, Kate finally chose Emily.

In this story, the names of dolls were written as if they are human so it was a little difficult to read and recognize whether it is a doll or a human.
