The latest addition to the American Girl Doll characters makes me want to start getting dolls again. I'm sure you're all wondering what historical period she's from. She's actually from our current time and is in fact homeless. Please click on the link below to check her out. Her wardrobe definitely says homeless girl to me. I'm writing the company in the hopes that they may soon crank out a halfway house doll and then maybe even someday a rehab and/or pregnant doll. I think they would fit in nicely with the homeless doll/ whatever theme she is supposed to be. Dare to dream.
