American Girl Can’t Seem To Wait
Even though it is only the beginning of the new year, 2008, American girl has already started planning for the girl of the year 2009! They just can’t seem to wait can they? Well anyway the good thing is… we get some very early news! It seems as though the author of the girl of the year 2009 will be Mary Casanova, who also wrote the Jess books (girl of the year 2006) for American girl. If any more information comes out we will be sure to let you know. This information was found at Doll Diaries. Not American girl: I found a website called Free Rice, where you try to define a word and if you get it right 20 grains of rice goes to people who need food, try it sometime.

I know something else about the GOTY 2009. Her name is Jaclyn Cooper. Some say she’ll be blind, but I was told it was just a rumor and isn’t true.

I can’t believe they already decided her name!

Jane replied:
Well if the book’s being written they would have to decide her name. I found it on a couple of websites, but I can’t remember the exact names…

Just found out that Jaclyn might be a rumor.

Rumor, or not, what a breakthrough to have the GOTY challenged in some way. What a brilliant idea, if they did produce this doll. I could see them creating this theme in the GOTY’s bestfriend.

Jane replied:
Yeah. Another guess is a doll named Hannah, but Jaclyn seems more likely, and the person who told me it’s a rumor was a poser, so you can’t believe that girl anyway! Jaclyn probably is true, it’s too bad we have so long to wait to find out!

I LOVE american girl dolls, i have 3, but i don’t think it would be a good idea to make GOTY best friends. I’m fine with historicel best friends. But i think GOTY best friend dolls would be to much.

Courtney replied:
I heard about another possible GOTY. Her name is Lulu and she’s from Minnesota. I also heard that she would be in a best friends collection. But it’s just a rumor…

I found this on Movieweb.com- an American Girl movie is coming out in 2009 -date to be announced it will be a comedy and the plot is : Young Lulu finds the transition difficult when she moves to Minnesota and must assimilate into a new school in the middle of the year.
SO I guess that is next – I am very disappointed that none of the other historical dolls will be getting a friend this year.
I read elsewwhere that Julie, a musical will be coming out after that – 2010 I guess-

This is out of an entry for AG dolls in Wikipedia. I tend to trust their info:
2009: Chrissa Maxwell
A Variety Magazine citation broke the news in September 2008 that the name of the 2009 Girl of the Year doll is Chrissa[9]. The doll, book, and her collection will be released on January 1, 2009, and a direct-to-DVD film entitled “Chrissa Stands Strong” based on her story will be released by HBO on January 6, 2009.[10]. Based on prelimiary plot summaries, the theme of her books and DVD appears to focus on bullying.[11] No verifiable information is available to date regarding the doll’s appearance or collection.

I watched the trailer and do not like it. I think it is a poor idea to have a movie where girls are snubbing each other.

Chrissa also has two best friends that will come out with her. She is trying to stand up to bullies. The new historical doll will most likely be from the late 1800s to early 1900s. close to Samantha’s time period, so that could be why they retired her. Julie is the next movie, which will be a musical.
