I read a book when I was smaller, about a family of full sized dolls..Do u know the name?
It was about a family of dolls who were human sized and made from cloth, and they had to hide the fact they were dolls from everyone. Blue cover and they were all kind of patch work dolls.I loved it but never finished it and cannot remember the name. I think 'baum' or something like that is a part of the title, or author. Thank u.
"The Mennyms" by Sylvia Waugh (there are several sequels - "Mennyms in the Wilderness" and "Mennyms Under Siege")
http://www.amazon.com/Mennyms-Sylvia-Waugh/dp/0380725282/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1210333145&sr=1-1
"The creations of a gifted seamstress, the title characters are "a whole, lovely family of life-size rag dolls" who inhabit a large old house in an English town. Some time after their maker's death, the reader is told, the Mennyms came to life and gradually developed a number of ingenious strategies for making their way in the ordinary human world. Waugh develops this whimsical premise with rigorous logic: the dolls can't eat or drink (but, with the exception of the philosophical blue doll Soobie, they all relish pretend meals); they can't be killed (though a good soaking is nearly fatal to rebellious Appleby); and they never grow older (Appleby celebrates her 15th birthday every July 4th). After four decades, however, their peculiarly static immortality has grown stale--Appleby, for instance, has been a surly adolescent for longer than her mother cares to remember. A letter from the lonely-seeming heir of the Mennyms' absentee landlord is the first of a series of events that triggers difficult but ultimately welcome changes"
