American Girls Book Club
The members of this program will be reading the American Girls book collection.
This collection of books is about girls who lived in different time periods of
American history. They are very popular with young girls, many of whom collect
the dolls and accessories associated with each story. Girls will enjoy reading
the American Girls collection to gather and discuss stories, make crafts, eat
the food from that time period, etc. The group will travel through time using
the American Girl series.
