AM Poster Post: 'Kit Kittredge: An American Girl' (and Reporter)
November 14, 2007 Comments
I love these things like American Girl and Nancy Drew where the appeal is that they're pretty young girls, but also hold serious adult jobs. The only thing is, I think they're really limiting themselves with so many ten-year-old ace detectives and star reporters. Why not Kit Kittredge: Steel Worker? Kit Kittredge: Political Assassin? Kit Kittredge: World War I Doughboy? Or, if they're really trying to sell it to a young girl audience, why not just make up careers that cater to them? Kit Kittredge: Professional Pony Collector. Or Kit Kittredge: Cures Cancer with Rainbows. Any of these would be better than another reporter.
