The Story Hour Collection will be live on our site this Wednesday, July 15th at 1 PM ET!

At least once a week, the Hazel Village animals gather in the Lodge for Story Hour. They take turns being the Storyteller – sometimes reading from books in Lucy Owl’s library, and sometimes making up tall tales from their imaginations.

This collection includes 9 items in total: 5 pieces of doll clothing/accessories, and 4 mini books. A purchase limit of 1 per household for all items will be lifted 24 hours after launch ♥️📚
