American Girl Doll News

We know that American Girl is releasing a new line of dolls, Wellie Wishers, in August or September. But what we DON'T know is their stories. Amazon.com categorized all three books as Growing Up, Social Skills and Social Life and Growing Up and Facts Of Life. Book 1 is also tagged as Animals, more specifically Birds. Book 2's tag is Emotions and Feelings, and Book 3's tag is Performing Arts. Cool! COMMENT DISCUSSION QUESTION: Will you get a Wellie Wisher? MY ANSWER: My name is No, my sign is No, my number is No. NO! I WILL NEVER GET A WELLIE WISHER! #April2016

Nobody really likes Isabelle on here. Trust me, I hated her movie, but that was it and it is it. I loved her books, the doll (still kicking myself for losing her highlights 26 months ago) and her collection (except ugly green practice top). I decided to make a collage of Isabelle with different eye colors, hair colors and skin tones, to see what Isabelle YOU wanted Isabelle to look like. EYE COLORS Left- Isabelle with brown eyes, Middle- Isabelle with gray eyes, Right- Isabelle with blue eyes HAIR COLORS Left- Isabelle with brown hair, Middle- Regular Isabelle, Right- Isabelle with red hair SKIN TONES Left- Isabelle with Lea's skin, Middle- Isabelle with medium skin, Right- Isabelle with dark skin And, the grand finale, EVERY ISABELLE FEATURED ON THIS POST! Ta-da! I love getting comments, so I'm going to do a Comment Discussion Question at the end of every post. Question 1: What Isabelle was your favorite? Question 2: If I were to change another doll's hair, eye and skin colors, what one should I do? MY ANSWERS 1: I love the brown-haired Isabelle! Brown hair and green eyes is one of my favorite combos. 2: I think McKenna would be cool. #April2016

I have some sad news. PR Newswire stated this Friday morning: "The pricey line of dolls that you might have grew up with, American Girl, is ceasing operations 30 years after Pleasant Rowland (then 45), introduced Kirsten, Molly and Samantha into the hearts of 9-year old girls everywhere. Doll supply is limited. American Girl will fully cease operations on January 1, 2017." APRIL FOOLS! I've been waiting all year to prank you with this. Happy April Fools Day! #April2016

If any of you guys loved American Girl World, you must have been sad when I closed it last week. But now, my good friend aglover2 (or Lin) has brought it back! It's basically the same thing as the old one. Here's the new URL: http://myfirstworld.com/164904 #March2016

On eBay, I found some Bitty Baby pajamas. I don't really like Bitty Babies, but a leak is a leak and hey, might as well put it up! I know it is because of the symbol on the pajamas. #March2016

DISCLAIMER: I am not the creator of freerice.com and Freerice is not paying me for this. I am just spreading the word because I like the site. One in every 9 people on earth don't have access to food. About one-third of the hungry people in America are children. Imagine not having food, let alone AG dolls! But, I found a great website that doesn't cost anything, and you can help hungry people with it, too, as well as get smarter. It's called Freerice, and it's a educational site where you get quizzed on different humanites, math, language, science, English, chemistry and geography subjects. But, here's the catch: For every right answer, Freerice donates 10 grains of rice to the World Food Programme. HELP THE HUNGRY! freerice.com #March2016

And the shoutout goes to (YAY I FINALLY DID IT ON THE RIGHT DAY!).... Indianapolis, Indiana! #March2016

American Girl trademarked "All For Girl" in the category: ENTERTAINMENT AND EDUCATION SERVICES INCLUDING IN THE NATURE OF A SERIES OF NON-DOWNLOADABLE VIDEOS AND MEDIA CONTENT COVERING VARIOUS ISSUES RELATED TO GIRLS' INTERESTS, HEALTH AND WELL-BEING. Looks like a new YouTube series for after AG Life's over! Cool! #March2016

OOPS! I haven't posted in THREE WHOLE DAYS! Yesterday, I tried to make a time machine so I could leak Tenney (GOTY 2017). But I failed, like I expected myself too. So, I decided to check eBay for stuff and I failed. So, in conclusion, there are no leaks. But, just so Google can love me and I can be number one on more keywords, I will post my guesses for the next 5 Girl of the Years. On the last day of 2014, I guessed that GOTY 2016 would be a photographer. To sum up my accuracy... Look at Lea! 2017 (Tenney): Some type of DOC (Doll of Color). American Girl has got better with their diversity stuff, with Lea being one-eighth Brazillian and Melody being fully African American. But, it would be cool to get a Asian one, due to there being none in both BeForever right now and GOTY (unless if you count Jess, but she was only half). I also think she will like something like biking, skateboarding, etc. 2018: I think in 2018, we will FINALLY get our GOTY with a disability! I would love Type 1 Diabetes, but any one would have me coming to Southpark Mall at 12:30 AM New Year's Day and camping out to be the first in line to get the doll! She would want to be a doctor someday and make a cure for her illness. 2019: I think 2019's doll will be a musician doll, for some weird reason. We already have Melody as a singer, and 20 million dancer dolls (just kidding, there was only 2)- so I think she should play a instrument. I would love for her to play some type of percussion, but in my wilder than wildest dreams- I WOULD LOVE FOR HER TO BE A DJ LIKE ME! But that would probably be in one billion years. Who cares, I would love percussion. 2020: I think this doll would love karate and be really good at it. If Tenney's not Asian, I think this doll will be. Her big-ticket item would be a karate studio and she would also like to, outside of karate class, make funky bracelets out of her 15 year old sister's old princess wigs. She would start a business selling these and still continue with karate. (Hey, most 9 year olds in 2020 won't remember Grace and you can never have too many entrepreneur dolls)! 2021: I think this doll will like to act (by this point in time, I think Rebecca will be retired) and will be biracial, just like every 5 years now. She could have a dream of starring in a big blockbuster. Then, a film studio magically comes to town and a misunderstanding makes her direct instead of act. But she realizes that she likes directing better than acting! HOORAY FOR FEMALE DIRECTORS! (it's my dream to be a director) Discussion Question In Comments: What did you get for Easter? And what guess do you hope happens? My answer 1: I got mostly food, but I also did get a mini Slinky, a stuffed bunny and (the best part) 63 DOLLARS! Right now I have over 100 dollars for Melody stuff when she debuts! My answer 2: 2018! #March2016

Lea is the prettiest doll AG ever made. I can't wait for her movie to come out. WHERE ARE YOU MAY 31? #VirtualDolls #March2016

Lindsey smells like pumpkin. And, she's in Kit's Holiday Dress because she didn't come in her meet outfit. #VirtualDolls #March2016

I got Maryellen the exact day that she came out. There were six dolls left, and my dad snagged one for me. (School started the Monday before her release. Bleh.) #VirtualDolls #March2016
