Birthday Present!

I was really surprised to find my birthday gift waiting for me when I got home from school today! It's the middle of the week, so I thought all of the celebrating was going to have to wait until the weekend.  I got a brand new Emily doll!



It's Emily Bennett! She's British and from the 1940s. During World War 2 she had to be sent to America to escape the bombings. My doll came with a copy of her book, but I'd read the school library's copy before.

 I love that my American Girl is actually British, haha. She's Molly's best friend, and my sister has a Molly doll already!

 She looks just like me, don't you think? Did you guys know my middle name is Emily?

  1. Happy Birthday Abby! What a great present! Yes, I think Emily looks just like you. I just got my first AG doll, Rebecca, about a month ago. She's the one who looks the most like me.
    Hugs,

  2. Joyeux Anniversaire, Abby! Your Emily doll does look just like you. My friend Nathalie has that doll, I think. I don't have an American Girl doll myself, but there are other things I want more.
