Little Mommy

Little Mommy
by Sharon Kane, originally published in 1967.

Summary
The "Little Mommy" in this story is an adorable little girl. We spend the day in her charming company as she cares for her dolls, treats their ills, gives them a tea party, feeds them dinner, and puts them to bed.

"This is my house and I am the Mommy. My children are Annabelle, Betsy, and Bonny. They are good little children and do just as I say. I put on their coats and they go out to play. Billy is Daddy, he works in the city. He has a new car. Isn't it pretty?"

"My children like to go for a ride. They sit in the buggy side by side. Now I will teach you the A B C, And who can count to ten for me?" "My neighbor comes for a cup of tea. We have a party by the cherry tree."

"Oh, dear! I'm afraid Betsy is ill! I put her to bed and give her a pill. I call on the phone for Doctor Dan. He says he'll come as fast as he can. Danny is Doctor and he comes in a hurry. He takes her temperature and says, "Don't worry." "She'll be well as quick as a wink. It's just the mumbledy bumps, I think."

"We Mommies have so much to do. Good night, dollies, I'm sleepy too."
