Meet Kit Kittredge an American Girl

American Girl dolls have been around before one could even remember, dating back all the way to the Great Depression Era. Kits story is based out of her hometown Cincinnati, one of the many places that were harshly affected during this time. The situation directly reflects the impacts the Depression had on families as her father loses his job and the Kittredge family is put at risk of losing the home they grew up in. Kit matures herself as her father is out working by helping around the house because her mom can no longer do so due to her sickness. The moral of the story comes when her aunt Mili teaches her morals to live by, and that is how to use things and protect things that can never be replaced. Kit is very warm-hearted as she stands up for the hobo children, writing an article for the newspaper in hopes of saving the youth. This doll works as a background story to teach to the children of modern-day society lessons.
