The Puppets of Spelhorst by Kate DiCamillo
When five puppets are left in a toyshop after being separated from their owner, they wonder what their future will hold. Each puppet has its own personality, hopes, and fears as they wait to learn what will happen next. As their journey continues, they experience friendship, uncertainty, and the possibility of finding a new home.
