"She has the same name as me...I like playing with them [better than Barbies] because they're more like me," said an eleven-year-old interviewed by the NPR reporter, explaining why she adored the brand and couldn't wait to see the film

Even while some might be cynical about the fact that "a Kit doll, complete with book and accessories, will currently run you $105" and the spin-off movie's "insistence on the nobility of the indigent might be a tad more difficult to stomach" given a knowledge of the price tag, even critics praised its "laudable life lessons and Depression-era trivia" that came along with the color-coordinated outfits similar to the dolls in the catalogue (Catsoulis 2008, p.1). Little girls may love the 'realism' of the dolls, mothers may love the escapism of the asexuality of the world, but the American Girl brand and its films seem designed to endure.
