Summary
In all societies, children have a need to play.  The doll, made in the human image is a universal toy.  The puppet, made in the human or animal form, is another means of diversion for children, as well as adults.  In some non-technological societies, puppetry has been developed into a high art.  Shari Lewis examines the variety of ways in which man, using materials at hand, has created replicas of himself for fun and amusement.
