If you have a daughter AROUND the age of 8… odds are you know all about ‘American Girl’. I love this line because it’s not just about dolls and playing dress up. It’s about cultivating a desire to explore, understanding the importance of a backstory, and empowering young females to obtain the skills needed to be confident and positive.

Yes. Please.

This month, American Girl introduced three new books for our little ones including:

• A Rebecca Mystery: The Crystal Ball – solve exciting and suspenseful mysteries
• A Smart Girl’s Guide to Liking Herself (even on the bad days) – learn more about themselves and their friends /family with “More Lists”
• Innerstar University: The New Girl – discover how decisions can change the outcome of a story (over 2o different endings!)

I used to love those books that would change depending on what path you decided to walk on. I remember reading them over and over again in an attempt to discover every sequence.

My favorite book out of the lot is “A Smart Girl’s Guide to Liking Herself”. It has such a powerful message and I think everyone can benefit from reading the title. Here are some sample pages:
