If you have a young girl to shop for, then you probably already know that Chrissa, the American Girl of the Year for this year is sure to be one of the hot gifts on her Christmas list. Like all American Girl dolls, the workmanship is faultless and the doll is beautiful. She has a light skin texture, straight brown shoulder length hair that is parted down the center. She has light blue eyes. She arrives dressed in a pink floral faux wrap with a flower at the waist and ribbon accents. She also is packaged with purple underwear, purple shoes and a floral ribbon bracelet. The package will also come with a pet mini-llama that is called Starburst. As with all American Girls, she is packaged with her very own self-titled book.
The movie "Chrissa Takes A Stand" was first shown on TV on January 5 of this year and became an instant classic with the rest of American Girl movies. The film revolves around Chrissa dealing with bullying, a topic that is very important to lots of girls today. As an answer to the large number of requests from families to the American Girl management on the subject matter, they decided that they needed a doll whose story would take on this real and significant trouble that touches the lives of a large number of girls daily.
Chrissa is a creative and friendly 10 year old girl who has recently relocated to a new town in Minnesota with her family to live with her grandmother, who she lovingly calls Nana. Chrissa's mother Meg is a doctor, while her father Paul makes platewear for a nearby company. She also has a brother who is called Tyler who is exceptional in his expertise of the universe and planets.
Her nana resides in a lake-front home in a well to do area. Chrissa's favorite activities are swimming and diving. She is especially looking forward to swimming in the lake when the summer arrives. Chrissa is also very talented at sewing and knitting. However, when Chrissa and her family relocate to Minnesota it is during the midpoint of the school year. Chrissa is uneasy about beginning at a new school and making friends.
When Chrissa does start school, she is given a hard time by the three girls that she is given to sit near. She calls the 3 girls the 'Mean Bees'. They start by teasing her and playing unkind tricks at her swim club, around school and on the internet. As the teasing grows to tormenting her and bullying, Chrissa makes the decision to be resilient, couregous and to stand up for herself.
Chrissa's account is really a valuable story for girls all over, to help them in understanding just how bullying touches others, and it also teaches the significance of self-worth.
For the doll, you can get a good number of attractive outfits that have been made to go along with the movie. There is Starburst the miniature llama, plus other outfits and accessories for snow sledding, swimming and special occassions. - 31376
