Felicity was one of my favorites, too. She had that pretty blue dress.
It's really sad that I still have every one of the AG books (well, the first couple of series up to Molly, I think). I guess I've just been holding out until I have a daughter.

oh i remember AG! I had all the Addy books. I was in B&N a couple christmases back and saw a hardcover edition of all the books in one and the pages had gold edges. it was magical. i bought it, reread all the stories in one night. then i gifted it to my mentee (at the time) and now she's hooked!

p.s. i hope Mattel doesnt royally eff this up.
