I received the product below in exchange for sharing my honest opinion.
The newest doll launched by American Girl as part of its BeForever doll collection is Nanea Mitchell—a Hawaiian girl growing up in Honolulu, Hawaii, in 1941.
Nanea’s story focuses on the bombing of Pearl Harbor during World War II and the courage of islanders who lived in the home-front. In creating the Nanea books and product collection, American Girl worked closely with a five-member advisory board—including an eyewitness to the Pearl Harbor attack—who provided their expertise in Hawaiian culture and history to inform all aspects of Nanea’s development.
Standing 18 inches tall, Nanea (nah-NAY-ah) Mitchell has big hazel eyes, wavy dark-brown hair and island tanned skin. She is wearing a bright red shirt with Hawaiian houses on it, Sailor-style moku shorts, sandals and a faux-hibiscus hair clip. With posable and moveable body parts she is the perfect playmate. Her hair is probably my favorite because it is so long and fun to style.
You can also find super fun accessories for Nanea at American Girl:
She truly is beautiful and such a great role model. My daughter loves her and I appreciate that I can use Nanea’s storyline conversation piece. I love how American Girl goes the extra step to make sure their product collection is as factual as can be. They don’t just use research materials either but go as far as working with an advisory board to ensure accuracy and provide additional perspective. Many companies just make up stories about their dolls, which is fun too, but I feel like my daughter can actually learn something about culture and history from American Girl.
To partner with Nanea’s debut and story of her time during World War II, American Girl is supporting the American Red Cross and their Service to the Armed Forces mission to provide care and comfort to members of the military, veterans, and their families. From 8/21 to December 31, 2017, American Girl will match any customer donation, up to $75,000 maximum, made at americangirl.com or at any American Girl store in the U.S.
Now you can get to know Nanea Mitchell and introduce her inspirational story to your girl today!
