Felicity Merriman is the first Doll of the Month of 2024!
Felicity Merriman is from Williamsburg, Virginia during the Revolutionary War in 1774. Felicity lives in a large family and is expected to do "sitting down kinds of things", but her true dream is to ride horses, which comes to a head when Felicity finds her own horse, Penny. As the war between the colonies and England rages on, Felicity is able to find herself - and her own independence. Felicity was released in 1991, made an online-exclusive in 2002, brought back to to catalogs in 2005, retired in 2011, rereleased in 2017, re-retired in 2019, and brought back for a limited time in 2021 for American Girl's 35th anniversary.
I love Felicity! I'm currently reading Felicity Saves the Day, which is my most favorite of Felicity's books. I really love her blue ball gown and her pink birthday outfit. 🐎🐴🐑 I also love her animal companions Penny, her foal Patriot, and Posie the lamb (all her animal friends' names start with the letter P) and her friendship with Elizabeth. I wish they would bring Felicity and all the other retired and cubed characters back. Felicity's green eyes are pretty!
Sydney, would you mind posting some of her collection, or at the very least, a picture of her in her rose garden gown, or original meet outfi, please? A lot of us older members 😛 remember her that way!
Congratulations Felicity and all of your fans. You have a wonderful story. We love it.

she's had quite a release history! ;)
