erryMakers Inc. introduces the 11-inch Dot Doll, based on Randi Zuckerberg’s book Dot, for kids of all ages. The Dot Doll encourages kids to put down their devices and go outside and interact with the world. Based on Johannes Vermeer’s famous painting and produced under the auspices of the Royal Picture Gallery Mauritshuis, The Hague, the Girl with a Pearl Earring Doll features a glowing inner light, vibrant color, and an enigmatic subject. The doll is designed for kids ages 3 and up. The Caroline Jayne Church Bear Doll is inspired by the children’s books by Church, many of which feature this teddy bear as a constant companion for the books’ characters. Soft and cuddly, this teddy bear is 12.5 inches tall and is appropriate for kids of all ages. A new addition to the Fancy Nancy collection, the 6-inch Fancy Nancy Doll is based on the character from Jane O’Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser’s best-selling books and is suitable for kids of all ages.
