Season 2 Episode 2: Chocolate Cake with Vitamins: American Girl Dolls and Inclusion in Children's Historical Fiction

In this episode, we are joined by Claire and Kyah as they discuss the history of American Girl Dolls. American Girl Dolls have been a staple of young girls' lives since 1986, but how does inclusion play into the dolls and the books that were published by the brand? By reimagining the history of American Girl Dolls, Claire and Kyah can show a new perspective, through new eyes.
