Carol Clifford (virgoroses18) | 21 comments I think I read this book in 2003/2004 I would've been in 3rd grade then. The cover was white and had a dollhouse or Cupboard on it with toys. It was a childrens book/fantasy I think. I don't think it's the The Indian in the Cupboard.

I don't remember much about the book except that the main character always played with the cupboard because the toys left inside would come alive. There was an indian I believe and a cowboy. I think there was some type of girl but i'm not sure what she was supposed to be.

Kit★ (xkittyxlzt) | 138 comments Maybe one of the sequels to Indian in the Cupboard? The Mystery of the Cupboard, The Return of the Indian, The Secret of the Indian

Mir | 802 comments There's The Magical Cupboard? I haven't read it myself and there's no blurb, but your description sounds like something might do (she has a different book with a magical dolllhouse).

Carol, did you rule out the suggestions above? Are you still looking for this or did you find it?

Jamie Dacyczyn (readsintrees) | 297 comments It's definitely The Indian in the Cupboard or one of the sequels. The OP didn't say why they didn't think it's The Indian in the Cupboard, but their description matches exactly.

Sent Carol a PM. If she doesn't respond soon, the next Mod can move this down to Abandoned

Thank you so much for commenting! I apologize for the lack of response. I do think it's The Mystery of the Cupboard after looking through your suggestions.

I have heard The Indian in the Cupboard read aloud and knew it wasn't what I had read as a child. I apologize for the lack of information. As you mentioned, someone above linked the sequels for me to look through. It was indeed a sequel and I'm thankful for finally finding it after all these years.

Thank you for the message Ann, without it I would've never have seen these comments. I have found the book thanks to the comments and you can now file this under 'Solved'.
