Children's book about a family of straw (?) people
Hi folks, this is my first reddit post, so I hope I'm doing this right. I'm looking for a book for kids or young teens from around the 1990s, maybe 80s, that is about a family who live in the human world, but they only look like real people- they're made of straw or maybe fabric... not entirely sure. They try to live like normal humans while keeping up their secret. I believe one of the straw girls falls in love with a real human (unsure). One of the problems is that they cannot be outside when it rains, because that'll disintegrate them or something. If anyone has any idea, I'd be eternally grateful!
