AG dolls are not fat. In my head, AG dolls are the new Sasha dolls so it's funny that your mom is all "Sashas are clearly superior!"

What finally won me over to AG dolls is that you can read the books, etc, and enjoy them that way too. It's not JUST about spending an absurd sum of money on a doll (although that's certainly part of the allure, at least from the little girl's perspective).
