Two great picture books to close out my year of reviews. I will pick up again in the New Year.

Noodles is the unofficial mascot of the Police Station. He takes his position seriously patrolling the alleys for rats. One night he smells smoke. A family is in a burning house! Noodles knows what to do.

Hand-Me-Down Doll

The doll has no name. First one person, then another takes her. No one really wants her. Then a poor girl finds her.
