the hoffmans are excited for the first jewish american girl doll to release in september of 2001, and she even looks like nikki! other things happen that month
There’s a wrinkle in the AG multiverse we all need to be aware of that has come to my attention through the readathon.
We’ve discussed Courtney having a Molly doll and Nicki reading Addy’s books, meaning that Courtney and Nicki exist in a different universe than Molly and Addy.
We’ve also discussed McKenna and Lila’s connection, as well as Samantha and Raquel’s. They are all AG characters together in the same universe, and that means they are in Addy and Molly’s universe, but not Nicki and Courtney’s. But here’s the new dimension:
I noticed in both Summer and Raquel’s books (and this could include Lila, but I don’t remember) that when they are illustrated with outfits AG sells, the clothes have the AG logo. This means they exist in a universe that has the AG company. For Summer, this is fine. That means she exists in the Nicki/Courtney universe. But what about Raquel? Does she exist in a 3rd universe where AG is a thing but Samantha isn’t a character?
(This is what happens to your brain when you read every single AG character book I guess 🤭)
since kit and samantha were the only girls to receive the world books (not to be confused with welcome to ___'s world books; you can see the differences between the two here) and therefore the only two to receive the pop-up scenes that were a part of those books, what scenes do we think the other girls would've had in their books?
as a reminder, samantha had piney point:
and kit had her treehouse (only pic i'm finding online shows it on the back cover):
my current ideas are:
kaya probably just has her teepee (since there's not much else from her collection that lends itself to something like this)
felicity has... a stable? or her father's store?
caroline gets her boat on the lake (or the parlor, but i like the idea of the boat a lot better)
... i'm at a loss as to what they could do for josefina. maybe her weaving loom?
cécile and marie-grace would definitely have the banquet table and scene of the masquerade ball
kirsten could have a schoolroom or something from her family's cabin/barn
addy has the puppet show scene
rebecca has the stoop of her family's house where she performs
claudie has a little stage or the car from her travels
nanea's books are not ones i've read, so someone else will have to suggest!
molly also might have the stage from her miss victory performance, or her family's victory garden
maryellen could have her family's airstream
i also have tragically not gotten to melody's books yet
julie could have her mom's store, a basketball court, even just her bedroom...
annnnnd once again have not read courtney or the twins' books, so that's all we got!
