Full title:Every little girl likes her dolls and every girl thinks her dolly must have her cradle. The Okazaki twins, Sazami (left) and Toshiko (right), have improvised, from two chairs and several blankets, a cradle for their dolls. The scene is in the living room of the Okazaki home on their farm just outside of McHenry, Illinois, which is some 60 miles northwest of Chicago. After a half-day in the kindergarten class at McHenry Grade School, the twins come home to play with their dolls. The Okazakis have lived in Illinois for more than six months, having relocated from the Rohwer Relocation Center to McHenry, Illinois, where they help manage the A. J. Krecker farm. Photographer: Mace, Charles E. McHenry, Illinois.
