Elizabeth and the Potato Dolly is a nostalgic look at yesteryear too precious to sweep into the dustbin of history. It is sure to charm all lovers of Americana from ages three to one hundred and three. Unique among pioneer stories with its reenactment at a living history museum, the artfully done photographs bring authenticity to the story.Elizabeth is sent to the root cellar to fetch potatoes for her Pappa’s dinner. When she doesn’t return promptly, her mother repeatedly calls but “Elizabeth does not answer and Elizabeth does not come.” This parallelism tickles young readers as does Mama’s elongated calling, “Eliiiiii-zabeth.” The children become intrigued to know what has become of Elizabeth. Since the story lends itself to reenactment, it works extremely well in a venue where children in the audience can become involved as the characters in the story. 3
