Illustrations and Characters from Claudie's Book
American Girl posted these illustrations from Claudie's first book, Meet Claudie, as well as a picture featuring all of Claudie's family and friends.
Claudie's family and friends include:
Jody, Claudie's brother who is 6 years old
Mama, Claudie's mother who is a newspaper reporter
Daddy, Claudie's father who is a baker and a World War I veteran
Nina, Claudie's best friend who loves to dance
Winston, a boy from the South who loves to draw
Miss Amelia, who runs the boardinghouse Claudie lives in (and has a dog named Dizzy Dot that Claudie loves to play with)
Selma, a glamorous and talented jazz singer
Porter, a musician who plays cornet in a brass quarter
Gwen, a watercolor artist who paints pictures of Harlem
These two illustrations were also shared: one of Claudie icing a cake in Angelo's Bakery, and another of Claudie at her dance class with Nina:
These are all so cool! I can't wait to read the book and get my hands on Claudie today!
