News, photos, reviews and more about dolls of all kinds including American Girl, MyTwinn, Barbie, Groovy Girl and many more.
Between one of our reader’s (Libby) tip and some research of my own, I have found a little bit of info on a possible American Girl historical doll release set for June 2011.
From illustrator Christine Kornacki’s website:
LONG OVERDUE UPDATE05/13/09 08:25 PMThough my updates have been few and far between lately, don’t be alarmed. These [...]
One thing I am certain of when it comes to the American Girl doll collecting community is that once there is rumor of a new doll, they become very impatient for new information. We just want to know all the details as soon as possible.
For 2010 what we know so far, is that we are [...]
Thanks to some amazing sleuthing and generous sharing from a Doll Diaries reader – here is the photo of the Lanie book cover. And UPDATED with the cover art for the second book, Lanie’s Real Adventures.
According to the book cover, Lanie is NOTHING like we expected her to look – but it was fun speculating. [...]
UPDATE:
Here is what the cover of the book looks like:
As the release date for the American Girl of the Year – GOTY 2010 gets closer and closer, we are starting to get more clues as to who she is and what her stories will be all about. I think we can confirm that the name [...]

Thank you Madison, a Doll Diaries reader, for sharing a scan of a mailer she received announcing the debut of Rebecca Rubin, the next historical doll from American Girl.
She definitely is pretty and while she has some similarities to Samantha, she is truly beautiful and unique. Her story sounds very exciting – she is a [...]
UPDATED! To see the first pictures of the Rebecca book covers visit the First Pictures of Rebecca post – and we just added the newest sneak peek picture of Rebecca from American Girl.
It looks like American Girl will be releasing their new doll in the historical collection, Rebecca, in late May or early June 2009. [...]
Some lucky individuals have already received their new catalogs with the pictures of all the new items, like Chrissa’s collection (cute swim suit, kickboard, sundress, pet llama!!), Kit’s reporter dress, new Bitty Baby items, and the new pets.
Below are the scans that a member at AGFMB made and gave me permission to post here. Click [...]
ANOTHER UPDATE! The rumors are true – not only will there be Chrissa the Girl of the Year for 2009, American Girl is releasing two best friends dolls with her – Gwen (blonde) and Sonali (dark hair). The dolls are being released January 1, 2009.
Rumor has it that the next American Girl Historical character will be Rebecca, a Jewish girl from the late 1800s to early 1900s. Since that time period is very close to the one for Samantha, I wonder if the release of this new doll is the reason for Samantha’s archiving.
No word yet on a release [...]
