From American Girl.com:
All that makes American Girl.
The pennant is just a throw away item. Almost like there was a surplus of that thick, stiff and rough craft like felt with some white lettering that can easily rubbed off. Apparently Kit's favorite baseball team asked for too much money. 'Cause I'm sure they are so rolling in Red's merchandise income.
Yeah, books are back! Book nerd happy dance!
I have Kit's night time accessories c. 2006. I can see no difference between these books. In fact, I'm not going to tell you which book is which.
Lovely full color illustrations. Like old school American Girl, Robin Hood is readable.
The radio book is front with all of Kit's books. It is a bit bigger than the average doll book, like a larger picture book for a kid slightly younger than kit.
The center, the focus of all things that make a collector happy, the radio! It is modeled on the Cathedral style radios that would had taken up quite a bit of floor space in Kit's living room. The radio is make of typical American Girl plastic, very light, smooth but very study, like can survive like a drop to the floor or being stuffed in a tight storage space study.
Yeah, it is a side...
The details make the radio very realistic. The dials really move.
The tiny little switch needs a good nail to turn on. A tiny screw driver works best opening.
It is kind of hard to show, but the radio glows a creepy shade of red when on...not sure how realistic that is to the time period. There is a news report, a message form FDR, some music and a I think a radio show. Each snippet is about 30 seconds longs. There is some static in-between channels.
Kit and her radio, common American Girl rant, the radio is too small! It fits well on her trunk but I just it is just right for $42 scale.
Kit could easily drip kick this radio. She and Ruthie seem to think it is the bees knees however.
The pennant is pretty much worthless and the radio is too small, but the book and the radio are an excellent sing of where BeForever can take our dolls. Both are relevant to Kit's books I like the fact that BeForever are linking today with yesterday with MP3 Palayers and Radios. I wish my cord would work with my phone but I love the idea. B+
Kit's Radio Set $42.00
In the 1930s, families would gather together around the radio to get the news, follow radio serials, or listen to “Fireside Chats ” from President Roosevelt. This radio has a dial that lights up, a volume control knob, and a tuning knob that moves the tuning needle when turned. Your girl can hear real recorded news from the 1930s, or attach the included 3.5mm audio cable to her own electronic music player to listen to her own favorite songs. This set also includes a mini abridged Robin Hood book given to Kit by her brother, plus a felt baseball pennant.
