Get ready for the upcoming release of the first American Girls feature film, “Kit Kittredge: An American Girl,” starring Abigail Breslin, with the DVD series, The American Girl Movie Collection, including “Samantha – An American Girl Holiday,” “Felicity – An American Girl Adventure,” and “Molly – An American Girl on the Home Front.” These are fine introductions to history for children and fine stories of brave young girls dealing with challenges at home and in the greater world.

Thge Ultimate Product Placement film. However, I applaud the Nancy Drew-like gumption of the characters. My daughter has one (or two?) of the dolls, and accompanying books. Of course, they don’t have “king-fu grip” or any trnasforming functions, but I guess they do include positive and agreeable characteristics that help promote maturity and personal improvement in the face of opposition.
