Poem about a wooden doll and a wax doll
|
Hi everyone
My friend was telling me about a poem her grandmother use to recite to her about a wooden doll and a wax doll and we �ve been trying to track it down. Part of it has something about the wax doll �s nose melting off.
The only one I �ve been able to find is one �The Wooden Doll and the Wax Doll � by Adelaide O �Keefe, sometimes attributed to Ann Taylor, about two girls called Blanchidine and Brunette, and it �s not that one. I know it �s very old and I wondered if anyone one here might know it or also have been told it as a child.
I realise this isn �t the usual request but it would make my friend �s day if I could find it!
