Bookroo's summary

In the final chapter of the Mennyms saga, Soobie, the blue rag doll, stands alone as his family's life force fades. Desperate for their revival, his prayers are mysteriously answered. But as the Mennyms awaken, they find themselves in the care of a quirky antiques dealer who may uncover their secret. Can Soobie protect his family from discovery, or will their true nature be revealed? Dive into this gripping conclusion where the stakes are life itself and the bonds of family are tested like never before.

From the publisher

The saga of the Mennyms, an extraordinary family of life-sized rag dolls, comes to its riveting conclusion in this fifth volume of the popular series. The Mennyms had been instilled by their maker with an indomitable life force that had sustained them through perils of many kinds, including the greatest threat of all: discovery by the outside world. But suddenly that life force left them, all except Soobie, the blue Mennym. Now Soobie’s desperate prayer for his family to live again is answered. But to what have the Mennyms returned? Sylvia Waugh provides the answer in the final book of this literary classic. Long live the Mennyms!
