Publisher's Weekly Review

And, pulling seniority, on the 90th anniversary of the beloved rag dolls, the paper-over-board Raggedy Ann & Andy: A Read-Aloud Treasury by Johnny Gruelle gathers 10 tales of the candy-hearted pair and their friends, including "How Raggedy Ann and Andy Came to Marcella's House."

Horn Book Review

Unabridged stories from Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy are mixed and matched here, with a large trim- and font-size, leading, margins, and Gruelle's charming original watercolor art making the print-heavy pages lighter. The text is slightly edited (""queer-looking"" changed to ""odd-looking,"" for instance), which will outrage purists, but this edition welcomes readers to the authentic Raggedy Ann experience.
