The Cats in the Doll Shop (2011)
The Cats in the Doll Shop
“She wants to make sure that Tania is able to find her classroom, and she wants to introduce Tania to the teacher. After all, going to school is part of the reason Tania came all the way from Russia to America.
“Will Tania be in my class?” I ask Mama. I look over at my cousin. Her hair, long, thick, and butter blonde, has been brushed until it gleams, and then plaited by Mama into a pair of heavy braids. I have always envied Sophie’s shiny brown hair, which today is tied back with a checked gros...grain ribbon, but I have a hunch even Sophie would agree that Tania’s hair is prettier.
“I know you would like that, but no, she’ll need to be with younger children for a while,” Mama replies.
“What about my class?” Trudie asks. “I’m younger.”
“No, I’m afraid that won’t be the right class either,” Mama says.
“So what class will she be in?” I ask.
“She’ll be in with the first graders,” Mama says. “The little ones who are just learning to read.”
