little doodles

I’ve seen people draw fanart of Monster High and Winx Club, and aside from the Mane6 from My Little Pony, I didn’t think I had a fictional girl group that I liked as a kid, until I remembered the OGs 😤 American Girl books. These put hair on my chest as a kid, I’d just be reading an inspiring story about an immigrant when BAM! her best friend dies of Cholera. And her parents tell her to stop crying about it and then the books never mention the dead friend again. Good reading material for a sprightly nine-year-old with anxiety issues.

my books are all at my mothers house but im sure someone over here could help

AMERICAN GIRL FANS! HELP!

I want to get an AG tattoo and my idea is to get each of the special birthday desserts from the books, but I only have Samantha and Kirsten's birthday books. If you have Happy Birthday Felicity, Addy, Molly, or Josefina I would be forever grateful if you could snap a picture of the illustration of the dessert! Examples below!

Thank you in advance for helping me achieve this very cute dream!!!
