Does your child have American Girl on her holiday wish list? American Girl has something special for every girl–from dolls that will inspire girls to lift up their voices and be a good friend to new movie specials, advice books, construction sets, and cookbooks and more that will offer hours of meaningful play. American Girl’s newest historical character is Melody Ellison, growing up in 1960s Detroit during the Civil Rights movement. Melody is a budding singer filled with hope and enthusiasm. She encourages girls everywhere to sing out for positive change. Other new items include American Girl’s new WellieWishers dolls. They focus on kindness and empathy, and help girls age 5-7 understand what it means “to stand in another person’s wellies”. There are also the first three WellieWishers books now available. Available until December 31, the 2016 Girl of the Year, Lea Clark doll, is sure to excite adventure-loving girls everywhere. Lea is a talented photographer who loves animals. She takes a trip to Brazil and discovers all kinds of adventures. Not looking for dolls? Check out Mega Bloks for American Girl, the American Girl Cooking cookbook from American Girl and Williams-Sonoma, and the Smart Advice for Girls library of books.
