American Girl Doll Book Club: Meet Kirsten!


Youth Classes -
2025-2026

Join us on a pioneer adventure as we step into the world of Meet Kirsten by Janet Beeler Shaw! In this cozy book club, we’ll read about Kirsten’s journey from Sweden to Minnesota in 1854 and explore what life was like for a brave girl on the American frontier. Each session includes time to read together, enjoy a themed snack, and create beautiful crafts for our dolls. We’ll make a wooden-style travel trunk, a heart-shaped necklace, and warm Minnesota winter gear—just like Kirsten would have needed! Bring your favorite doll and get ready for a heartwarming journey through history, friendship, and creativity.
