The Chalk Doll
Average rating
4.1 out of 5
Based on 58 Ratings and 11 Reviews

Book Description
While Mother tucks her in for a nap, she tells Rose about growing up in Jamaica. Too poor to have a store-bought chalk doll, Mother describes the wonderful times she had making her own fun. The cozy dialogue between mother and daughter and the exuberant paintings create a lyrical portrait of the unique joys of a Jamaican childhood. Full color.
