More about Luciana!!!

So, some more info about the new GOTY 2018 Luciana :)

"Get to know American Girl’s 2018 Girl of the Year, Luciana, in this first book in her series! Luciana is over the moon—she’s going to Space Camp! But when she’s picked to lead her team in a robot challenge, instead of rocketing her crew to success she steers them straight into trouble. After that, her teammates don’t trust her. In fact, Luci’s pretty sure they don’t even like her. It’s great to be good at science—but Luci learns that it’s not enough. If she’s ever going to make it to Mars, she’s got to be someone her crew can depend on, no matter what."

"In her second novel, Luciana is off to youth astronaut training camp! She hopes to be chosen to dive to an underwater habitat where real astronauts train for life in space. But when Luci accuses her diving partner of sabotage, no one believes her and her chances of making the diving team sink fast. Things hit rock bottom when Luci has an underwater crisis. Suddenly, making the dive team isn’t her biggest worry. She’ll have to conquer her fears if she ever wants to make it to Mars. If she can’t, will she have to kiss her dreams of becoming an astronaut good-bye?"

Luciana's third book is called Luciana: Out of this World and will come out on May 29, 2018. Luciana's other two books are already out in bookstores like Barnes and Noble and Books A Million.

"In her third story, Luciana and her family are headed to Chile for winter break. Luci can’t wait to see her cousins — but the reunion doesn’t go as planned, and Luci feels like an outsider in her own family. Just then she receives a surprise invite from Claire Jacobs, her frenemy from astronaut training camp, to join her at the Mars habitat in the desert and watch NASA scientists at work. It’s an offer too good to refuse, so Luci decides to leave her cousins and give her friendship with Claire a second chance. But what if Luci has made the wrong decision? What if she still can’t trust Claire? When disaster strikes in the desert, Luci finds out the truth."

Now, for her collection :)

I can't wait till she comes out!!

GOTY 2018 Luciana!!!!!

Today American Girl announced the new GOTY for 2018!!!

Luciana!!!

"American Girl's 2018 girl of the year is Luciana Vega, an 11-year-old "aspiring astronaut who dreams of being the first person to go to Mars," the wildly popular doll makers said in a statement unveiling the new character.

"Luciana is our first character that's really immersed in STEM," said Rebecca Dekuiper, a American Girl designer. "We've had STEM products before, but we really wanted to do a whole character to show girls that STEM is cool." 

American Girl worked with a lot of people from NASA to make sure Luciana's story and collection was accurate- from a astronaut to a scientist to the CEO of the Space and Rocket center! A NASA astronaut, Megan Behnken, said this about Luciana: "I was able to follow Luci through all of her story and adventures, and provide feedback from an astronaut's perspective on the authenticity of her story and the activities that she participated in. I've been in space and fixed the Hubble space telescope, so I have some perspective on how we use robotics, how we train for robotics."

The president of American Girl, Katy Dickson, said this about Luciana: " [Luciana is] a champion of STEM and a natural-born leader. Luciana is a role model for today’s girls -- empowering them to defy stereotypes, embrace risks and failures, and chart their own course in life -- whatever the goal."

Luciana will be released on January 1st! So close yet so far away!

How many of you want her? I do!
