Which is really nothing new for me! My darling little Wendy came today and in my head I knew she was 8″, but I was under the impression that she was like Cissette’s little sister. Is this not the case? She seems a little too bulky to work as a little sister to Cissette. I should write to Kathleen and see what she knows. In the meantime, if anyone out there knows more about these Madame Alexander dolls, I would appreciate your help. She is darling, but she’s not the scale that I pictured.
