Why not try “Secrets of Droon”?

Hey there adults with children. Want to introduce your kids to a magical world of adventure and wonder NOT written by an open and proud bigot? Well why not try “The Secret of Droon” series? We’ve got:

1) Three different main characters with different personalities and quirks for self insert options

2)  A spunky princess who can take name and kick ass while still being very polite (because manners are important)

3) An elder wizard father figure that does NOT manipulate the cast into convoluted plans to do his bidding

4) A comic relief side character that is not annoying as hell

5) An evil dark lord with a tragic backstory an redemption arc

6) An even eviler dark lord with no redemption arc that must be defeated at all costs

7) A mysterious, morally grey character with a secret connection to the princess.

8) A missing Queen 

10) Comedy, suspense, romance, drama, AND angst.

11) 44 TOTAL BOOKS

12) And best of all, the knowledge that every dollar you spend on this series is not given to a horrible, horrible person.

Have fun!

This is the primary AG holiday decor in our house. Seemed unlikely that we could afford to collect all the historical holiday outfits, so this is the next best thing.

My favorites were always Kirsten and Rebecca, although the only doll I have is Caroline (third favorite)

Harvey's been filming a new project that seems to be the newly-announced Damned If You Do, starring and executive-produced by Kate Siegel.

Deadline's description of the film:

Written by Ellen Adair and Eric Gilde, and produced by Objectively Good Media, the film follows a group of teenage friends who sold their souls to the devil. Naturally, life grants them different paths: a rock star, a tech mogul, and a high-profile activist. Years later, they must rely on an old classmate to try and escape Hell’s grasp before the contract’s deadline of their 25th high school reunion.

I went from only two winter coat sets to having a lot more cold weather wear. Since I sold Samantha's Beforever coat, everything except for Rebecca's outfit is new.

Went with the calico dress for Julie since she wore the casual outfit a few months ago. Also since I had Kaya wearing her winter accessories previously, she gets to wear the fancy shawl this time.

The hardest to dress was Kirsten because her fingers kept catching the sweater. Hardest to pose was Maryellen, whose skates I think have permanently scratched my dresser.

It was a close race between Kirsten’s winter woolens and skating outfit, but Lindsey’s Valentine’s party outfit had a strong lead all the way.

Please do tell me which books you have collected!

yay! love an excuse to show off my books:) @beautifulwillfulldead also asked about them, so here’s a peek for both of you.

(bonus pic of the mini books i own because i love miniature books so much)

as i mentioned in a previous ask, the majority of my books are thrifted, and the books are still the only ag item that i continue to collect. however, other than the history mysteries, which i have sought out copies of on occasion over the past year, i’m not really actively trying to collect, and only add books if i happen to come across them. (i am tempted to find samantha’s wedding memories and her movie script book though.) i’m also not particularly picky about edition, as you can probably tell, but have thought about getting double copies for the girls who went through illustration changes.

please let me know if there’s any books you want a better look at while i’m here! i can’t do scans or like photograph an entire book, but i’m happy to do more of a peek at any particular one if you send along an ask!

books partially obscured in the photos: kirsten’s theater kit, one play script and the director’s guide from samantha’s theater kit, the director’s guide from molly’s theater kit, the american girls album, samantha’s cooking studio, the silent stranger, and kira down under

books not pictured (not at this location currently for a variety of reasons): the sound of applause, the roar of the falls, growing up with aloha, trouble at fort la pointe, under copp’s hill, watcher in the piney woods, shadows in the glasshouse, riddle of the prairie bride, and enemy in the fort

Hab Das Mädchen, das allein nach Haus geht zuende geguckt. Ganz offensichtlich ist der Grund, aus dem Nina in den nächsten Folgen nicht mehr dabei ist, der, dass sie zusammen mit Julie in den Flieger gestiegen ist und die beiden zusammen ein neues Leben angefangen haben. Ganz eindeutig. Eine andere Erklärung gibts nicht.
