Molly (1944)

Molly McIntire is growing up during World War Two. She wants the war to end so that her dad can come home from overseas. With her English friend, Emily, at her side, Molly learns the importance of pulling together—just as her country must do to win the war
.

Kirsten (1854)
Kirsten Larson must leave all she’s ever known to come with her family to the New World. They settle on the Minnesota frontier, where people don’t speak her language or understand her traditions. Yet in time, Kirsten discovers the richness of her new land—and the true meaning of home.


Felicity (1774)
As a girl growing up during a revolutionary time, Felicity believes the American colonies should be free. Others think a king who lives far away is most fit to rule—even Felicity’s grandfather and her best friend, Elizabeth. Feeling torn, Felicity must find a way to hold both love and loyalty in her heart

Addy (1864)
Addy Walker’s story begins as she and her mother are escaping slavery to find Addy’s father and brother, who’ve been sold away. But their escape means leaving Addy’s baby sister behind—her cries could cost them their lives. Once Addy takes her freedom, can she re-unite her family?

Samantha (1904)
Samantha’s six-book set comes in a protective slipcase and features her stories of growing up in 1904.

Please add me.

I loved the American Girl series! Molly was my all-time favorite. I had her entire collection. I loved collection the books, dolls, trading cards, etc.

Added Anji!

Did you have the dolls? I had Molly and Addy.

I was surprised to hear that they have stopped selling Samantha.

I only had the Molly doll. Even though I liked them all, she was the only one I loved enough to want the doll [and everything else] of.

Did they? I hadn't heard that. I wonder why.

I think it is supposed to be a collectable now.

Plus, they've added new dolls.

I remember the trading cards! Loved those!

I wanted a doll when I was younger, but my parents thought they were too expensive.

Did anyone else get the American Girl catalogs? I loved looking through it.

I have Felicity . She stays up in my closet and I still have all her furniture and clothes up in my attic.

And I actually got a magazine in the mail like a month back...which was bizarre. They've added a lot of new dolls as they're phasing out the original ones. It made me a little sad.

I only had Addie, but desperately wanted Samantha since she was my favorite.
