I wanted an american girl doll my whole life. They are the girls from the books that are out. Growing up it was just me, my mom and two younger sisters so she didn't have any money to buy us a lot of stuff. She was really open about how we really couldn't afford things like that and I realized that she was doing the best she could for a single mom. We always had food on the table, clothes on our back and a roof over our head and that is all that really matters. Try talking to her about how much the doll costs and see if she would like any of the $20 dolls that are out there. Maybe get her into porcelain dolls if she doesn't really play with them. I have like 30 that I have collected over the years and you can get them really cheap.
