    She feels as if she is in motion! In her red dress, she performs well with her winsome looks. A beauty!

    What a dear doll! Occasionally, when I was growing up in Idaho, I’d see Navajo families passing through. I remember the velvet and silver on the ladies. This little gem brought it all back to me. . .thanks!

    Pretty doll but she looks a little sad that the music is elusive.
