I totally agree with you on this. I don't believe there is anything wrong with dolls that reflect, especially in the sense of looks, a particular ethnicity or heritage.

This doll is no different than the American Girl series or Barbie's friends.

OAN,

i don't know too many 11 year olds who's soul searching extends beyond things like which scrunchie to wear or the next episode of Lizze McGuire. But hey, some kids are more "advanced" than others, I guess....
