It’s full-on weep city at AGTHQ as we close the final chapter of Addy’s journey — the bravest girl in the American Girl universe. In the winter of 1865 Philadelphia, Addy clings to hope: hope for her family to be whole again, and for the freedom she’s fought so hard to claim. But freedom doesn’t come without cost, and we’re reminded that not every story ends neatly — or happily. Join us as we laugh, cry, and ugly-weep our way through Addy’s final book, and reflect on why stories like hers are so powerful — and why some would rather they go untold.
