Raggedy Ann Stories

Raggedy Ann is the beloved doll with red yarn hair and a triangle nose. She came to life in 1915 when author and illustrator Johnny Gruelle found a rag doll in his mother’s attic. He drew a new face on the old doll and created stories about her to entertain his daughter, Marcella, during the final months of her illness.

Although Raggedy Ann looks like an ordinary doll, Raggedy Ann Stories chronicles her extraordinary adventures. In one instance, she bravely rescues the family dog, Fido, from the dogcatcher. On another occasion, she falls into a bucket of paint and finds herself in need of new stuffing, then is stitched back together with her famous “I Love You” heart. From flying high off the ground inside of a kite, to mentoring the other dolls in the nursery, the adventures are endless.

Raggedy Ann celebrated her 100th birthday in 2015, and has proven herself to be an iconic companion across generations. She continues to find a place in children’s hearts.
