*Molly's pajamas can be found in the books Molly's Surprise, Happy Birthday, Molly!, and Changes for Molly, as well as the short story "Molly's A+ Partner". They are also worn by Molly in the movie Molly: An American Girl on the Home Front*(these pajamas were replaced by the Floral Pajamas in February, 2013) I didn't see any reviews for Molly's pajamas, so I figured I HAD to do one, since her jammies are among my very favorite Molly outfits! Molly's pajama set is very charming. It has red and white stripes (very candy cane-like) with three white buttons down the front of the shirt. (However, Velcro closes the shirt, not the buttons.) The shirt is slightly long (it goes right down to her rump), and you can tie the matching sash around her waist. Please note that the sash is attached to the back of the pajama top and is not detachable. The pajama top also has a wee little pocket, which is adorable. Her pajama pants are held up by an elastic waist, and the bottom of the pants are cuffed. The fabric feels like thin cotton, but it looks and feels very comfortable and snuggly.  I'm sorry that my picture of Molly in her jammies is truly awful and blurry, but I don't have a better photo on me right now.  But don't let my bad photo deter you! All in all: Very well-made and highly recommended. A dolly must-have if you like pajamas (like me  )! Grade: A+

I was disappointed in the fabric choice for these. I had anticipated that they would be softer and they are more of a stiff cotton instead. My mom made these for me way before patterns for AG clothes existed and she chose a soft flannel and the shirt buttons with buttons. I actually prefer her design to AG's. B- here for AG's version.

I think they are perfect for fall-they are crisp cotton. They are too warm for summer and too light for winter. They are from an authentic 1940s PJ pattern (My grandmother, Kit's age, says "PJs" is the correct term). I HATE HATE HATE the velcro. It's weird and leaves gaps in the front of her PJ top. I wish the buttons were real. My Molly is happy to have her PJs though and she likes them. Grade: B

I thought they should be softer like the ones for girls (which I am wearing right now!). But I still love to match my Molly. Molly is wearing her PJs and robe and slippers right now. Laura is mad because she doesn't have any ''real'' AG pajamas.

Molly's pajamas are another one of my favorites. They're just so bright and colorful.
A+

Molly's pajamas are one of our favorite PJ sets. I do believe that we have an older Pleasant Co. version. The fit and color are perfect for Molly.  Overall, I give this set an A+! D~

I love Molly's pajamas!! They're cute and remind me of a candy cane. They're also easy to use. I kind of wish they came with slippers though.

I love Molly's PJs. Recently bought them on eBay, so Molly has not worn them yet, but they were one nightwear that I always wanted the most out of the historical nightwear. They are tagged 1990 Pleasant Company, and the material is sturdy yet soft.
Definitely cannot wait to have a slumber party between by dolls!
