– published in 70s-80s, not that old
– cover was a cool tone color?
– girl doll runs hospital where she takes care of all the toys, she is in charge but they are all friends
– there is a china doll that comes in which is sick and running a fever
– all dolls/stuffed animals belong to girl who is terminally ill, she is involved sometimes but the point of view is from the toys’ perspective, maybe 3rd person
– there is a bunny or bear of some sort
– some animals have to have surgery, be patched up/sewn back together
– they are in a closet or something, there are beds where all the patients are
Any help would be great.
Is it Fuzzy Rabbit, by Rosemary Billam? Google search it to see the cover.
I should have added this to the description, it is for sure a children’s chapter book.
Could this be “The Lonely Doll?” Or one of Dare Wright’s other books?
Great suggestions, but neither of those are right, based mostly on the cover photo and descriptions. I should also add that I remember this is a children’s chapter book.
Try this one: The Doll Hospital, by James Duffy.

This is it! Thanks! I could already tell just by the cover, but after reading the summary, this is definitely the book I am looking for! Makes sense why I couldn’t find it because it doesn’t really come up much in searches and there is another newer book tiled the Doll Hospital. Now to find a way to get a copy so I can reread it. Thank You!
You’re welcome! Thanks for posting back.
