This book is a wonderful collection of true facts about the life and accomplishments of Rønnaug Petterssen. It is an accurate account because it was written by her daughter. It includes many wonderful color photographs which showcase the artistry of Petterssen's costumed dolls, gnomes, nisse and angels which she designed throughout her 40 years of working in her doll making business. It is a great resource book for anyone who owns or collects her Norwegian dolls. I appreciated reading about her background and learning about her dedication to do what she loved. I highly recommend this unique book!
