The Chirping Moms

Enter for a Chance to WIN American Girl’s 2020 Girl of the Year: Joss

March 6, 2020

This January, American Girl launched their Girl of the Year: Joss.  My girls and I are really excited about this year’s doll. We love her cool outfits and accessories for surf & cheer, her adorable puppy and most of all her story. From learning about partial deafness to the importance of trying new things. This year’s Girl of the Year is amazing. 

American Girl Joss

 This year, my 2 American Girl fans are very interested in writing. When we started talking about things they liked about the new Girl of the Year, Joss’s books  and how I’d be sharing about the new doll on The Chirping Moms, they offered to write the review themselves! They’re also just as excited as me to give away a Joss doll and book to one lucky winner. Details on how to enter at the end of the post.

So a brief note as why “mom” thinks this is a wonderful Girl of the Year and then your official review by 8 year old and 10 year olds. 

American Girl, Girl of the Year: Joss

Why Mom likes Joss:

The word both of my girls keep using when we talk about Joss is “inspiring” which is exactly what a mom of 2 little girls wants to hear about their new favorite toy and book series. Joss’s stories (we love the books!) really show girls  how experiencing something new can lead to growth and self-confidence. There is also a lot of talk of respecting others’ interests, respecting friends and respecting themselves.

Things I love about the Joss doll:

  1. She does both cheer and surf
  2. She is  very unique
  3. She has a cute dog named Murph
  4. She has a hearing aid
  5. Her dog knows  how to surf and skateboard

My review of Joss, The Book

Joss is a very cool girl! When I read the book, I got to know her better! I hope you enjoy this book review. In the book you get to meet all of her friends and family. The book is about how Joss and her friend Sophia try out for a video contest. The video has to be about what they love about the beach. During the making of the video, Joss and Sophia get in a fight! When they get back together, they can’t find a way to film the video. Her brother, Dylan, dares her to try out for cheer. He said that if she does it, he’ll let her use his video equipment! I can’t tell you the rest of the book, but if you want to find out what happens, READ THE BOOK!!!

Why Maggie likes Joss (10 years old):

Things I love About the Joss Doll

  1.  I like that it comes with a hearing aid that you pop in and out.
  2. I like that  Joss can stand on the surfboard herself.
  3. I like that she comes with her surfing dog Murph and her life jacket.
  4. I like that she comes with her  sparkly cheer bow
  5. I like that  her bag comes with wax for her surfboard.

Book Review: Joss Touch the Sky

Joss’s team flyer Lauren sprains her ankle, which means the team needs a new flyer. Joss  tries out and makes the new flyer. She is super excited to be the new flyer. She’s upset that she has to take it slow and doesn’t want  to take it slow. There’s a talent show at school and so Joss, Brooklyn and Sophia sign up. 3 weeks later the talent show is on, their show turns out to be a dog-tastrophe . When all hope seems down Josses brothers Dylan and Liam ask her and Sophia to go surfing to shadow rock. Joss tries to impress her brothers and  takes a huge wave! Joss gets hurt . Later at cheer practice she can’t  do the stunts right. Her coach asks her if she wanted to do an easier stunt, Joss says yes and her team is a little upset. Can Joss still win the competition even with an easier stunt? READ TO FIND OUT!
