Miranda, Queen of Broken Toys

by Andrea Tripke

Overview

Miranda is unlike all of her friends. While her friends love getting new and shiny toys, she sees beauty in the broken and unwanted ones.

Becoming the Queen of Broken Toys, Miranda often feels lonely until one day a boy shows up at her gates.

An extensive toy search and some unexpected raspberry-tea- and-tomato-and-cheese-sandwich-disaster change her life forever.

Miranda, Queen of Broken Toys is a humorous yet heartwarming story dealing with lacking values in today's throwaway society, accompanied by quirky illustrations.
