"A bit like the great movie Toy Story and a bit like the wonderful
Kate DiCamillo book The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane. This is a
great family book." --The Washington Post on Toys Go Out, the
companion to Toys Come Home
Here is the final book in the highly acclaimed Toys trilogy, which
includes the companion books Toys Go Out and Toy Dance Party and
chronicles the unforgettable adventures of three brave and loving toys.
Fans of the series, as well as newcomers, will happily discover how
Lumphy, StingRay, and Plastic came to live with the Girl. In six linked
adventures, readers will also learn how the one-eared Sheep became
one-eared, watch a cranky toy meet an unfortunate end, and best of all,
learn why it's okay for someone you truly love to puke on you. This is
perhaps the most charming of three inimitably charming books destined to
become classics.

"A timeless story of adventure and friendship to treasure aloud or
independently. Wholly satisfying, this may well leave readers expecting
to see the Velveteen Rabbit peeking in the bedroom window and smiling
approvingly." --Booklist, Starred
"The best talking toy stories since Winnie-the-Pooh." --Kirkus
Reviews
"A book destined to be read to children at bedtime for decades (nay,
centuries?) to come. It is rare that prequels exceed the books they are
meant to simply introduce, but this is one of the few." --Betsy Bird, A
