Hush-a-bye / Jody Lee Mott.

Mott, Jody Lee, (author.).

Summary:
Like most kids with younger siblings, Lucy loves her sister, Antonia, but is all too frequently annoyed with her as well. The two spend most of their time together since their mother works so much, but without friends Lucy can't help but feel lonely anyway. She tries to ignore the bullying and teasing at school about her family being poor - it's always best to keep her head down and do nothing. When the sisters find an old, muddy doll head in the river, Antonia claims it as her newest treasure. At night Lucy hears her talking to Hush-a-Bye...and does she hear the doll talking back? Soon, Hush-a-Bye seems to be protecting Antonia by making bad things happen to others, and it isn't long before Lucy asks for its help against her tormentors, too. Slowly, Hush-a-Bye's influence forms a wedge between the sisters, and Antonia's dependence on it becomes frightening. The doll appears to have a mind of its own, and soon it will have Antonia's to control as well. Can Lucy solve the mystery of Hush-a-Bye to stop its sinister plans before they come to pass?
