A Letter to Hitty Kate
It is hard to say goodbye to a friend when you live so far apart. Spending the Summer with Hitty Kate was such fun and Hitty Sparrow is missing her very much. She has decided to write a letter to Hitty Kate – it is always fun to receive mail! Hitty Sparrow begins with the weather – HOT! Now it is much more seasonable. Hitty Sparrow continues with the latest excitement….
First off, Bécassine and Aunt Doll have been fussing for days about how to properly stock the new kitchen dresser (beautifully made by Art to Play With). Hitty Sparrow reports that Bécassine has been arguing for only French items to be stored there, as all the drawers are labeled in French! Aunt Doll believes this to be a purely cosmetic feature, which (amusingly to Sparrow) has Bécassine in a tizzy! Grown ups can be so funny!
Another bit of news has a (very little) bit to do with Raggedy Ann, a doll and story that is near and dear to Hitty Sparrow’s heart. As you can see, her Raggedys are well loved:
Here is the exciting bit!!! *Art to Play With* will be offering Hitty Jean’s books for sale at a miniature show!!! Presently, Ima is on duty at the Book Shop and is proudly showing off Hitty Jean’s creations. Front and center are Raggedy Ann Story books! – what fun!
In her letter, Hitty Sparrow writes that she hopes Hitty Kate can make it to the show. It is to be held in Alexandria, Virginia, in October and is sure to be a shopping extravaganza for all Hittys, as Judy Brown and Art To Play With will both be vendors there!!! (***More details at the end of this post!***)
Hitty Sparrow finishes her letter by sending MUCH love and heads off to the mailbox:
‘Til Next Time…
