'Ready For My Bedtime Story' Figurine

Hello!  Today I renewed the listing in my Etsy Shop for one of my favorite figurines.  I think it's one of my favorites because of the story behind the inspiration for creating it...  I was inspired to make this figurine by a book I read to my children when they were little.  Sweet memories of snuggling up before bedtime with each of my kids on either side of me, so interested in a story they had heard so many times before ~ and loved more each time I read it! I must have read that book thousands of times.  I still have it in our bookcase, it's a bit tattered around the edges from all the love it received through the years.  

This darling little girl is ready to snuggle up for her bedtime story, and to dream sweet dreams. With her yellow blanket and her beloved teddy bear tucked safely her hand, her tiny little toes are peeking out from under her pretty pink and white nightgown. She is holding her favorite book, asking someone special to read it to her. She stands approximately 3 1/2" tall, on a  4" x 3" base.
