   I enjoyed looking thru this book to get ideas of the different kinds of dolls to add to my collection. There were a lot of dolls that I didn’t know existed untill I read this book.

   I am so impressed with this book!! What a welcome addition to the dearth of books available on black doll collecting. Debbie Garrett’s love of black dolls is conveyed so wonderfully that even the non-doll collector will be enthralled. The book provides easy to find and useful information. Add in the wonderful color photographs that capture the beauty and artistry of black dolls and the book becomes invaluable! From the novice to the professional collector this book should be a mandatory addition to anyone’s reference materials on doll collecting. Thank you, Debbie Garrett, for undertaking this monumental task!

   This book epitomizes true Black Dollizing (New Word). It is truly thorough and precise that even the beginning novice can follow,understand and gain immediate knowledge, as well as adding to the understanding and knowledge of the seasoned Black Doll collector. I have now gained a better understanding to my own knowledge of Black Dolls, so much so that I now have a renewed energy and drive to learn more and more. The pictures and layouts are outstanding and beautiful. I physically feel the energy, and especially the love that each layout and picture was given. This book definitely continues and updates the two Black Doll books by Myla Perkins and is a deffinate asset to any Black Doll Collector. Can’t wait for Book II, III and IV. I know the author has that much more knowledge to give us and I shall wait patiently. Thanks Debbie and keep up the excellent work. Rose Hawkins, Connecticut
