Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy were created as storybook characters by Johnny Gruelle in 1918. In the stories, Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy are dolls filled with happy thoughts, dolls whose faces are bright with smiles and whose shoe-button eyes twinkle with happiness. They're joyous and kindly dolls with warm, generous friends. But not only are Raggeddy Ann and Raggedy Andy storybook dolls, they are real dolls, too. Dolls who have brought love and laughter to millions of children, just like Johnny Gruelle's stories have. They are classic dolls- ideal gifts for any children.

Small but got the job done
I made a mock up of the Real Annabelle doll for lectures I give on Paranormal Investigations. I was hoping to find a large size doll that maintained the Classic Raggedy Ann doll look that I needed--since the newer dolls look different and I wanted one that looks like the doll on display at the Warren's Occult Muesuem.With this doll, it is small but it works so well. In fact, I had a group of College Students jump back in thier seats when I pulled the doll out of it's box and started waving it around during my presentation.As for the doll itself, it needed a little work--the yarn hair wasn't separated like it should have been when I took it out of the packaging. It took a little time and scissors to correct this, hence the four star rating. So if you're buying this as a collector you may want to make note that you will possibly have some issue with the doll's hair. Otherwise it will make a great toy or prop.

A Friend for Life
We have bought a Raggedy Ann doll for our six grand-daughters when they were bornso when our first great-grand-daughter came along last month we, of course, had to getone for her. Amazon was the only place I could find an original Raggedy Ann, the doll'with a heart'. She is all I remembered from years ago. I would recommend one for alllittle girls.....she is timeless.

Good enough for 5 year old's play
I wish this doll had real button eyes, like the one I had when I was growing up. But alas! Today's consumer is so much more aware of safety issues. Good thing I didn't pull the eyes off my doll and choke on them, otherwise I couldn't write this review. All-in-all, good quality doll for the price. I'm satisfied with it for my granddaughter.

Raggedy Ann
This was a gift for my newborn granddaughter. I collect Raggedies and each of my grandchildren receives their first from me. I hope she loves it as much as I do.

Cute Doll
Cute doll, bought for my two year old granddaughter so she'd have SOMETHING that's not pink, purple or Disney. Doll is cute and seems to be pretty good quality. I'm satisfied with the item, hope she likes it too,

Can't ask for better than that
Very true to the one I had a child. She lives at Grandma's house and every time the kids come over, she's there among their play. Can't ask for better than that.

Little larger than I wanted but that's my fault. Good quality and realistic to an original Ann that my daughter use to have.
