A youngest sibling with a world of her own

Dory wants her older siblings to play with her, but they dismiss her as too young. Left to entertain herself, she turns the house into a setting for imaginative adventures involving monsters, a closet, and her sister’s favorite doll. Her make-believe games and desire for attention sit alongside a plot thread about proving her bravery when her family needs her. The description also notes pencil-drawn illustrations, placing visual play alongside Dory’s energetic antics. At heart, the book brings together sibling relationships, pretend play, and a young child’s wish to be included.

Book overview

OVER 2 MILLION DORY BOOKS SOLD WORLDWIDE - NATIONAL BESTSELLER - In the start of this bestselling, laugh-out-loud chapter book series, an imaginative little rascal attempts to win over her siblings the only way she knows how.

"Some of the best children's literature in years." --New York Magazine

As the youngest in her family, Dory really wants attention, and more than anything she wants her brother and sister to play with her. But she's too much of a baby for them, so she's left to her own devices--including her wild imagination and untiring energy. Her siblings may roll their eyes at her childish games, but Dory has lots of things to do, including outsmarting the monsters all over the house, moving into the closet, and exacting revenge on her sister's favorite doll. And when they really need her, daring Dory will prove her bravery, and finally get exactly what she has been looking for!

Complete with pencil-drawn pictures bursting with charm and character, this hilarious book about a lovably energetic little sister and her antics is sure to keep the whole family laughing.
