"Once upon a time there were two dolls. Their names were Annabelle and Tiffany. Annabelle was a doll that was made of fine china. Tiffany was a Funcrafts doll. She had snap on clothes and could be dipped in water while Annabelle couldn't. They lived in the same house ,but had different owners. Annabelle's owner was Kate Palmer, and Tiffany's owner was Nora Palmer. Kate was 9 years old and in the 4th Grade. Her sister, Nora was 5 years old and in Kindergarten. The two dolls had many adventures together. Annabelle and Tiffany were the two main characters in this story. Annabelle was a doll that thought about things and asked many questions. Tiffany, on the other hand, was one that liked to take chances and do things quickly. They were best friends! A conflict in this story was when the main characters got lost in Kate and Nora's school. Another conflict was when Annabelle and Tiffany went into the wrong book bag at the school and ended up in the wrong house meeting a very mean doll named Princess Mimi. The last conflict was that people couldn't see the dolls moving or they would get Doll State (a temporary or permanent state when they can no longer move). The way they resolved these conflicts was by defeating Princess (Mean) Mimi. She got PDS (Permanent Doll State) when Nora saw her jumping from the bookcase. The way they got out of the school was by climbing back into Kate's book bag. The way they could move without being seen was by moving during the night and when no one was home."
