SO EXCITED - I just can't hide it!

Hey! It's Felicity. I'm really excited about the GOTY for 2010. If you are like us, you may have some questions about her. Unfortunately, American Girl usually keeps pictures and most information about the Girl of the Year hidden until very close to the release date. Luckily, we've been doing some research and here's what we found:

We have three things we know about the GOTY for 2010. First, she likes the outdoors and has a lot of energy. We know this because if you go to www.americangirl.com, click Stores, and go to see all events, it says the GOTY is energetic and likes being outside. Secondly, she might be African American. We know this because the author of her books (we found them without pictures on www.amazon.com), Jane Kurtz, has written several books with African Americans: Saba: Under the Hyena's Foot (Girls of Many Lands), Fire on the Mountain (Aladdin Picture Books) and The Storyteller's Beads. Finally, we know her name will be Lanie. We know this because we looked up her books on the chapter.ca website and found them (again without pictures). I hope we can find more for you soon.

But also thinking to this holiday season, I'm sad Kirsten will be retiring. She was such an inspiration, except now Rebecca covers Kirsten's main idea - immigration. But let's look on the bright side. Maybe this means a new doll next year! What do you think? Feel free to comment below. I better get going because I need to see Penny before it gets dark. Bye! Love, Felicity
