“By feeling your candy heart! If the doll has a candy heart then it is you, Raggedy Ann!”
Raggedy Ann laughed, “I am so glad you all love me as you do, but I am sure you would not be able to tell me from my new sisters, except that I am more worn, for each new rag doll has a candy heart, and on it is written, “I love you” just as is written on my own candy heart.
“And there are hundreds and hundreds of the new rag dolls?” asked the little penny dolls.
“Hundreds and hundreds of them, all named Raggedy Ann,” replied Raggedy.
“Then,” said the penny dolls, “we are indeed happy and proud for you! For wherever one of the new Raggedy Ann dolls goes there will go with it the love and happiness that you give to others.”
