About this book
Flora gives her treasured baby doll four names before settling on Lady Daisy. In Caroline Stewart's collection of children's stories, this small companion travels from the nursery to a railway carriage as the family sets off for the seaside. Flora's excitement distracts her from the doll, and a struggle between Charlie and Baby Henry causes damage. Nurse hides the pieces beneath a cushion, setting up further trouble when a new passenger takes that seat. The story's direct comments draw attention to carelessness, unfair judgments and the ease of blaming others.
Elsewhere, a tree watches as Richard takes a gun despite Joe's warning. A shooting accident brings distress to their household. This unusual viewpoint sits alongside the domestic conversations and moral observations of the doll story. With three tales listed in its contents, the collection offers readers of older children's fiction small adventures shaped by responsibility and the consequences of thoughtless actions.
