The Toymakers Daughter

Niclo and Danny are two children who live on a mountain (perhaps somewhere in the Alps), with their parents and baby brother. Life for them is simple, predictable -- the only danger is being carried away by the eagles to the valley on the other side of the mountain. Until one day, a child is carried over, from the valley, and plopped right into their laps. She is Marta, and she is the Toymaker's daughter . . .What follows is a story of one little girl's journey to escape her past, to grow the heart of a real child, and to find a place with a family who truly loves her. She does not ever want to go home again. This book is quaint and comforting, mysterious and delightful. A truly hidden treasure that everyone should discover.
