“Five Dolls” by Helen Clare
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Five-Dolls-House-Puffin-Books/dp/0140301895
” Elizabeth Small finds one day that she can shrink to the size of a doll and visit the dolls in her dollshouse. here she meets bossy Vanessa, gentle jane, mischievous Amanda, little Lupin, Jacqueline the French paying guest, and the Monkey who lives on the roof and shouts rudely down the chimney at the dolls. The dolls decide she is their landlady, and bombard her with complaints about the house, the lack of hot water, light, etc. In each chapter she returns to the house to bring them some new addition to their possesions and have more adventures with them. A very amusing book, any child who likes dolls and dollshouses will enjoy this.”
