I started reading American Girl books after my sister Amanda brought one home from school. I’ve been reading them just about as long as I’ve been able to read chapter books. My sister Amanda’s favorite was always Felicity but she let me read all her books. As an original American Girl I’m a little sad to see Felicity being retired in fact, this Christmas is the last that you will be able to purchase this treasured historical character.Since a big part of the American Girl Company is the books, you will still be able to purchase her books at AmericanGirl.com. And even though Felicity is being moved to the archives she still retains her place in the hearts of 9 year old girls everywhere. Including my own.
Kai got her very first American Girl book 6 months ago. We’ve gone through the first two books in the Kit collection. She picked Kit to start her collection, which is fine by me I know nothing about the new American Girl’s. I know as my girls continue to get older their love for American Girl will blossom. There’s something about losing yourself in a book, with such an imagination a girl can dream big!
Through the Christmas season you can purchase Felicity online at AmericanGirl.com or in any American Girl store. Get this classic doll before she’s gone. And the perfect gift for any American Girl on your list.
