I am the puppet maker in my family and my daughter is the doll collector. She is 18 and loves them now as much as ever. So when I got Charles and Alan's email I showed them to her and she had just been watching a video made by online friends of hers: 3 sisters who are home schooled and very much into filming their American Girl dolls in settings, stories, etc. They are truly amazing and creative and possibly looking toward jobs as movie makers in their future. Take a look at the youtube video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WF8vLGT0pMw Here they are actually manipulating the dolls much like puppets, even dressing in black during the actual Nutcracker scenes. These girls are about 20, 18, and 14.
