STORY
In a beautiful and famous town known as Battipaglia there was a big toy store that many children knew and that was called " Giocattolandia ”.
Here there were , lined up on large shelves in a perfect order , all the best toys of Italy ...
Every Monday the owner , an elderly gentleman named ANTONIO , got up early and went around in his car from one factory to another to buy toys . He personally chose all the toys .
One Monday , though , he was sick and could not go around in the car to look for games .
-Grandfather- said his granddaughter LISA – don ’ t worry . We can look for the toys on the Internet and ask to receive them here .
So Mr . ANTONIO sat down at the computer next to LISA and together they ordered a collection of wooden trains . As a gift , there was a " surprise dolls box ", something that LISA liked very much .
The next day a courier came to " GIOCATTOLANDIA " with two parcels : one was the package of toy trains and the other the surprise box .
Mr . ANTONIO opened them : the wooden trains were all wonderful , shiny , strong , fast and colorful , just as he had seen them on the Internet . The surprise dolls , on the contrary , .... A real disaster !
The 5 dolls were all made up of material , tall and slender ; two blondes , two with red hair and a dark one .
One of the blonde dolls , however , lacked her skirt and the other was without her shirt . One of the dolls with red hair was missing her shoes and the other was missing the bag . Only the dark haired doll seemed to have everything , didn ’ t she ? Oh no ! She had no eyes !
Mr . ANTONIO was disappointed with the delivery . However , he arranged the 5 dolls in the shop window . After a few days a little girl named Maria saw the 5 dolls in the shop .
