Adelaide is the second doll in a series called "Ladies a Plate".

Fairy Bread
 
Come up here, O dusty feet! 
Here is fairy bread to eat. 
Here in my retiring room, 
Children, you may dine 
On the golden smell of broom
And the shade of pine; 
And when you have eaten well, 
Fairy stories hear and tell.

Robert Louis Stevenson
