Samantha is one of the ”original three” dolls created by Pleasant T. Rowland in the American Girl Collection. For many, Samantha is synonymous with American Girl and she was also the first American Girl historical character to be “archived.” Samantha’s stories are from 1904.

Meet Callie – Natalie’s My AG #39. Natalie asked for Callie for Christmas in 2011, right before McKenna came out.
