I really like her collection so far, what do you think of Grace and her collection?

An image of the Grace mini doll has surfaced ( I'm not posting the photo because AG has asked others to remove the photo from their sites). We finally know what she will look like, she has dark brown or black hair with bangs, blue eyes, and appears to have freckles. She does not appear to have the classic face mold but either the Josefina or Marie Grace mold.
I find the mini doll to be very cute and can't wait to see what her 18 inch counterpart looks like. I know the mini doll will be making her way to my house.

A third book description is now available on amazon, with a release date of late May 2015.
We now know that "Coco's" grandparents own a bakery that might have to close. "Coco" and her friends intend on using their culinary skills to help keep it open.
I'm really excited to see what this doll looks like and I'm glad they chose something a little different with one of her talents being baking.

The book descriptions have been added to Amazon and are a little different from the movie description.
Book 1:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1609588916/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1407853648&sr=8-1&pi=AA75

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1609588924/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1407853787&sr=8-2&pi=AA75
The books are written by Mary Casanova who wrote the books for GOTY Jess, Chrissa, and McKenna and illustrated by Sarah Davis who illustrated Kanani's and Saige's books. According to the book summaries GoTY 2015 is a nine year old from Massachusetts and has relatives in France whom she goes to visit. She has an interest in starting a business with her friends.
We now have a tiny bit of information on the upcoming GoTY for 2015. According to imdb.com there is a movie about to go into production about a girl (code name Coco) who is trying to save her grandparents ice cream shop from being shut down.
We will continue to update as we get more information.
