Hi Ladies,

Does anyone know the name of the American Girl series done about an Amish girl quite a few years back? Any info would be appreciated.

Thank You, Linda

I don't remember there being an Amish one. There was Kirsten who was a pioneer girl, which would be the closest one I could think of. I am interested to find out.

We love all the American Girl series in our house, but I don't remember seeing one about an Amish girl. Wish I could be of more help!

I think an Amish American Girl doll would be an oxymoron. You know the Amish live sooo simply and the American Girl dolls are such a statement on Consumerism.

I think that the closest to Amish would be Kirsten the pioneer.

Michele, the act of buying/collecting a ton of American Girl stuff may be a reflection of consumerism, but the stories are some of the only contemporary girls' books that are NOT about consumerism. They are mostly about what really matters in life. Not about stuff.

oh I love the American Girl Series, and always have. They're such good series and I think every girl should own at least one set of the books and dolls.

I've never hear of an American Girl Doll series based on an Amish Girl but there is this series.

Shelly,
I agree with you about the values that are shared in the American Girl Series, just found it humorous that there could possible be an Amish Girl
