Английская Википедия:American Girl (film series)
American Girl is a line of books, movies, dolls, and accessories based on pre-teen girl characters (aged 11–13) from various periods of history including the 21st century. Several of the characters from the American Girl books have since had their stories adapted into films, the majority of them released as direct-to-DVD or television films, with the exception of Kit Kittredge: An American Girl, which was a theatrical release. Starting with the debut of the Maryellen Larkin doll, American Girl has since expressed interest in producing webseries based on their characters.[1]
