It has been a while since I have shared a raggedy and story. And so I thought I would find another to share with you.

This story is about an adventure that raggedy and has one day when painters come to Marcella's house to paint the nursery where all the dolls live.

Raggedy and dances and plays with one of the young painters, but the day does not end as nicely as she had hoped.

Raggedy and and the painter.

When house cleaning time came around, Marcella's mama decided that she would have the nursery repainted and new paper put upon the walls.

That was why all the dolls happened to be laid every which way upon one of the high shelves.

Marcella had been in to look at them and wished to put them to bed. But as the painters were coming again in the early morning, mama thought it best that their beds were piled in the closet.

So the dolls beds were piled into the closet, one on top of another, and the dolls were placed upon the high shelf.

When all was quiet that night, raggedy and who was at the bottom of the pile of dolls spoke softly and asked the others if they would mind moving along the shelf.

The cotton in my body is getting squished as flat as a pancake, said Raggedy and.

And although the tin soldier was piled so that his foot was pressed into Raggedy's face, she still wore her customary smile.

So the dolls began moving off to one side until Raggedy and was free to sit up.

Ah, that's a great deal better, she said, stretching her arms and legs to get the kinks out of them and patting her dress into shape.

Well, I'll be glad when morning comes, she said finally, or I know Marcella will take us out in the yard and play with us under the trees.
