All three of these movies are fantastic, and far exceeded my expectations. I love them as much as the kids, as they are not dumbed down or silly. The cinematography is excellent, production values are high, acting is solid. The period sets and costumes are well done. And the stories are great - realistic plots and drama. In short, these films represent what is possible in family / kids movies, and what I would like to see more of as an alternative and antidote to the usual Hollywood blockbuster spectacles. Highly recommended, especially to independent and active girls who need strong role models, but also to intelligent boys and adults who like good stories. Great value for three discs.

My daughter is five and she loves all three movies. They're very interesting stories and have a good message.

My 8 year old daughter recently got into American Girl. We saw the Molly movie when it was on Disney but this was our first time seeing Samantha & Felicity. I honestly didnt think the Felicity movie would be very intersting, being about colonial williamsburg and all but it was a good movie and my daughter LOVES it. Its her favorite now and she watches it over and over. Samantha is also very good and reminds me a bit of Shirley Temples The Littlest Princess. These movies are great because they are clean/decent you dont have to worry about anything bad or language etc and they are done beautifuly. We cant wait for the KIT movie to come out later this year and hope that American Girl continues to put out more movies!

We love the books - the DVDs are equally as entertaining. My daughter who is reading the books loves the movies and they are suitable for my 5 year old to watch without worrying what they will see or hear.

Good family movies with no foul language or anything obscene. My daughter loved the books and has enjoyed the movies. If it gets girls interested in reading the books and therefore enjoying reading more...then great.

My daughter told me a few weeks prior to Christmas that she wanted this collection. She had tried searching online, but I knew exactly where to go. The amazon value was amazing!...so I could surprise her for Christmas. She watches them over and over.

This collection is a wonderful way for children to learn about the life of children from different time periods. I found the stories delightful, informative, and historically correct. Personally I enjoyed Samantha most, but I don't want to short change the others. Hopefully the other stories from The American Girl series will also be made into movies. As a teacher, I would encourage parents to make these movies a must for their child to see, boys as well as girls. This is great family entertainment.

Through all my years of collecting American Girl Dolls it feels great to have them come to life on screen. Sitting with your doll and watching the movie feels real ith your doll. it makes all troubles go down for the time they are on. If a girl is an American Girl Doll collector they will never get tired of their doll coming to life beyond there eyes.

MY GIRLS LOVE THE AMERICAN GIRL DOLLS AND SO THE MOVIES ARE GREAT BECAUSE THEY BRING THEM TO LIFE. THE BOX SET WILL BE A FUN MEMORY AS THEY GET OLDER TOO. GREAT FAMILY MOVIES THAT ARE ALSO EDUCATIONAL. A MUST HAVE FOR AG LOVERS!!

Got these movies for our six year old daughter. All three are nice, wholesome movies that all the girls who visit our home love. We have watched them over and over for the past 2 years and watch one of them at least once a month. The whole history based concept of the books and movies from American Girl has given our daughter an education that the school won't give her until middle school. Definitely recommend these!
