Since the first catalogue debuted in 1986, American Girl has been a source of strength, optimism, and delight for ALL GIRLS. A trusted place where important values like compassion, tolerance, and love are championed and encouraged—a place where CHARACTER COUNTS.

American Girl is best known for imparting valuable life lessons through its inspiring dolls and books—featuring diverse characters from long ago and today—that teach girls about loss and love, about despair and hope, about caring and coping, about life and death—things young girls worry about; things we all worry about. To millions of girls, these characters have become role models—helping them think about their own character and the kind of person they want to be when life inevitably presents them with challenges and disappointment. These are stories filled with lessons of kindness and simple goodness—a goodness that has the power to change a girl and change the world.
