Raggedy Andy Stories Introducing the Little Rag Brother of Raggedy Ann by Johnny Gruelle Raggedy Andy arrives in the mail at Marcella's father's office, displays his cheery smile, and is eagerly reunited with his sister, Raggedy Ann. After a warm welcome from the other dolls, Raggedy Andy adds to their fun with a dance, a pillow fight, and a taffy pull. His merry escapades frequently show his generosity in helping others, as he bravely ventures into the gutter to find the penny dolls, "cures" the French doll, and encourages the wooden horse. An unforgettable American classic and one of the most beautiful and lovingly created illustrated books in the history of children's literature. Handmade, written and illustrated for Johnny Gruelle's daughter Marcella, this book is a living memorial of a father's love and a daughter's joy. Marcella passed away when she was only thirteen, but the clever and charming stories her father wrote for her live on. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection.

Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
