Author Josephine Scribner Gates (1859-1930) was a writer of children's books born in Ohio. he was known especially for her "Live Dolls" series. The doll theme developed the idea of dolls who came to life and behaved much the same as the children who played with them. She skillfully blended stories of fantasy with lessons in behavior.
