Critics Review
This book was about approaching the subject of dolls from a different angle. Epping Forest Guardian Although her days of doll-making for the monarchy are long behind her, Susan has just Famous Character Dolls, and the cover features none other than a porcelain Princess Diana, swathed in deep blue velvet - Susan the former editor of Doll Magazine, took three years to research and compile her latest title, and it was a real labour of love for her.
