Toys Go Out- Modern Fantasy

Toys Go Out is a modern fantasy collection of stories told by three toys. There are six stories that make up the book. They are arranged in no certain order, but all deal with some of the problems that these three friends are faced with. There is Lumphy, StingRay, and Plastic. All three of the toys belong to the Little Girl. Each of the stories deals with the toys experiencing new things. Whether it be fear of a washing machine or fear of a dog, the toys overcome these obstacles together. In the end, they all come together for a grand birthday party for the Little Girl. These stories teach an important lesson about fear of new things. All of the toys are nervous because they are thrown into situations that they are not used to. Together, they overcome these fears and realize that the unknown is not all that bad after all. Not every new experience is going to have a negative outcome, so everything needs to be given a fair shot. It also shows how important it is not to spend a lot of time worrying about something, because it will probably end up being nowhere near as scary as you made it out to be in your head. The ultimate lesson of the story deals with jealousy. The toys all fear that that they are going to be replaced and that the Little Girl is going to love another toy more than them. As people, almost all of us also experience similar feelings at some point in our lives. We worry that someone new is going to take our spot and we will be forgotten about. It is important to never allow yourself to feel this way. This book shows that worry about things like this is not worth your time, because it should never happen.
