Raggedy Ann and her brother, Raggedy Andy, were ragdolls with curly red yarn for hair and hand drawn faces. They sometimes came to life when their mistress, Marcella, was away. For other children, they sometimes came to life in front of them, through the power of imagination. They are generally depicted as being loving and innocent, experiencing peaceful adventures in rural settings and with other dolls and toys, such as the Camel With the Wrinkled Knees, Babette,
Tin Soldier and Henny, the Dutch doll. Raggedy Ann is described as having a "candy heart" and often withstood a lot of physical abuse from humans and other circumstances. She is good-natured and a very heart warming loving doll who cares for herself, Andy, and the other toys.
