Welcome to Stories Come to Life. I am your host, Kathryn Lopez Luker. During this time of Covid, many people aren’t able to use the library in the same way as in the past. To help bring more stories to more readers, many publishing companies are allowing books that are normally unavailable for copyright reasons to be read out loud and shared with others until June 30, 2023. The stories that fall under that special permission will all be taken down on that date, so listen now, while they’re available! Today’s story is shared with permission of Penguin Random House Publishing Company. 

While the Hollis doll goes to school, ballet class, piano lessons, and Girl Scouts, the real Hollis spends the day with her cousin Addison and their new friends, Sharon and Robert. But after having all the sweet things she could possibly eat, Hollis finds herself longing for real, nutritious food. And as the doll takes on more and more of Hollis’s daily responsibilities, Hollis finds herself growing uncomfortable at the doll shop. How can things go on like they are?

To find out, sit back, relax, and listen to this story come to life.

Listening to audiobooks really does count as reading, and there's no better way to relax than to hear Stories Come to Life!
