Racketty-Packetty House is a children's book written by Frances Hodgson Burnett, the author of The Secret Garden and A Little Princess. The book tells the story of a doll named Tidy Castle, who lives in a grand house with her family of aristocratic dolls. However, when a new family of dolls arrives in the house, Tidy and her family are forced to move into the Racketty-Packetty House, a run-down dollhouse in the attic.At first, Tidy is dismayed by her new surroundings, but she soon discovers that the Racketty-Packetty House is full of charm and character. With the help of her new friends, the Racketty-Packetty family, Tidy sets out to make the house a home. However, their happiness is threatened by the arrival of the Rat family, who are determined to take over the house and make it their own.The book is filled with charming illustrations by Harrison Cady and is a heartwarming tale of friendship, determination, and the power of imagination. It is a classic children's book that has been enjoyed by generations of readers and is sure to delight both children and adults alike.It's the nurse rolling up the arm-chair before the house to hide it, so that it won't disgrace the castle. Hooray! Hooray! If they don't see us they will forget all about us and we shall not be burned up at all. Our nice old Racketty-Packetty House will be left alone and we can enjoy ourselves more than ever--because we sha'n't be bothered with Cynthia--Hello! let's all join hands and have a dance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
