My Favorite Childhood Toy

I had a doll named Pollyanna. It used to be my aunt’s doll but she gave to my older sisters as a hand-me-down toy. As my sisters grew older, they had outgrown Pollyanna and they gave it to me. Pollyanna and I became inseparable ever since. She was my only companion.

She is made from plastic, about 2 feet long, blinking eyes, and an angelic face. My mother made her some dresses and I often changed her clothes and brushed her hair. Every time I had my tantrums, I smashed her and throw her on the wall. Since she is made from plastic, the only damaged I done to her was making her eyes bulged out.

My sisters got angry at me for my recklessness and threatened me that they would take her back. They always reminded me to take care of Pollyanna the way they take care of her. Since then, I always take care of her and made sure she is in good condition.
