Amazon.com:
The American Girl collection of books, dolls, and accessories makes its film debut in this inaugural title featuring bestselling character Samantha, in a live-action holiday story set in 1904. AnnaSophia Robb plays Samantha Parkington, a poised yet playful 9-year-old who lives with her wealthy grandmother (Mia Farrow) in a country estate after the untimely death of her parents. Still grieving her loss, Samantha takes comfort in her friendships with new pal Nellie, a servant girl, and her dashing Uncle Gard (Jordan Bridges), a successful businessman. When Uncle Gard marries Cornelia (Rebecca Mader), Samantha is reluctant to embrace this female "intruder" until she spends three months with the newlyweds in New York City. In time, Samantha grows to trust and admire Cornelia, a spirited suffragette. Emboldened by Cornelia's example, Samantha takes her own courageous risks to improve the plight of some young orphans. This superbly produced film provides a glimpse into America during the Industrial Revolution, while showcasing the promising talents of young Robb. (Ages 8 and older) --Lynn Gibson

*It is strange that as a guy who had children's lit in college, and is married to a teacher, and has raised two girls of my own, one of which is an English teacher, that I had never heard of An American Girl Series. After reading a review on one of the books I thought my Grand daughter might like them, and then when night while doing some maintenance on my youngest girl's computer, I saw the set on her book shelf.

I just watched my first American Girl movie day-before-yesterday and I immediately had to go and find some more. I haven't been let down. This is my second movie in the series to see and my Mother and I both had tears welling in our eyes throughout the entire film. It is sweet, relevant to modern day issues even, and it shows the importance of friendship and family. I like how the movies encourage involvement in causes. So far the ones I've seen have all been perfectly clean and wonderful ... Read More

By way of disclosure, I am an American Girls Junkie, as are my wife and daughter. Their books and movies provide an excellent mechanism with which to teach living history to young girls. "Samantha, An American Girl Holiday" is no exception.

For those of you unfamiliar with Samantha, she is a wealthy orphan living in New York in 1904. This movie tells the story of Samantha's developing friendship with Nellie O' Malley, the daughter of an Irish domestic servant. As the film progresses, ... Read More

Samantha befriends a young girl next door who moves in to be a maid. Since her mother died her father and 3 sisters work in the house of an upper class snob. The poor girl then is sent to an orphanage when ... Read More
