We're still in Black History Month, and I thought I would cover a book about an African American doll. Unfortunately, none of the doll books I have have African American dolls as main characters. I haven't ever found any. So I will lead you to other places to find such posts and/or books.
I saw the book, The Magic Doll: A Children's Book Inspired by African Art, by Adrienne Yabouza, online.
You can read about it and purchase it HERE.

I mention it because it seems to be the only book I found online not included in the post done a few years ago by Debbie, over at Black Doll Collecting, on books featuring African American dolls. You can find that post HERE.
Then of course there are the books Debbie has written about African American dolls. She has written three books, which she tells you about and where to purchase on her blog HERE.
There is also the book "Sitting Pretty, A Celebration of Black Dolls" by Dinah Johnson. It can be purchased HERE.
There are two books on Black Doll Identification by Mila Perkins. The first volume can be purchased HERE. The second volume is available HERE.
Next month is Women's History Month. We'll see what book I have for that one then. Stay tuned for the next post on yesterday's doll show!
