'School rules, home rules, Mimi-Marina is up to her neck with rules. So for the school holidays, she is only too glad to help out at her mum’s seemingly rule-free Global Village Doll Shop. She soon feels a magical vibe in the shop. Was her mind playing with her mum’s hilarious remarks? How could those comments make sense, unless the dolls gadded about and frolicked around the shop at night?

'Then Mimi-Marina makes a discovery which ties her down to big rules, freaky rules, rules that get her into trouble and brings the shop to a standstill. To get the shop back on track she must go to the Realm of Dolls. But going to the Doll Realm is fraught with danger for her. Would her life change forever? Even worse, might she never return home?'
