I wasn't much impressed by the American Girls series, especially when they began advertising the dolls!

I did like the books about Kit, however, with their depiction of how people coped - or didn't cope! - with mass unemployment, poverty, bread lines, hobo jungles, runaway husbands, etc., and about the New Deal measures that were taken by the Roosevelt Administration.

Each short book (about 50 pages) ends with a brief historical section about the period, illustrated with photographs.

I may buy all six to give at Christmas to my youngest granddaughter...

Kit hopes dad will find a new job soon. Kit won't have to get up early every morning before school to help Mother with the chores for the bothersome boarders, the people who pay to live in the Kittredges house. Best of all, Kit will have more time to write newspapers for Dad, like she used to. But when Kit helps deliver her class's Thanksgiving food basket to a soup kitchen, she realizes that the Depression has changed some things permanently and she learns a surprising lesson about being thankful.
