"Make Me Real" is a delightful story about a little girl named Brett and the tiny doll, Persis, who becomes her best friend. Persis can only come alive when she is loved by a child, and must return to being a regular doll when that child grows up. Dare Wright (1914-2001) is the beloved author of "The Lonely Doll" series. She wrote and photographed "Make Me Real" the 1970s, but this is its first publication.
