American Girl Character Encyclopedia

The American Girl Character Encyclopedia is an American Girl publication published by DK Publishing, focused on brief character information and trivia for various characters.

The book briefly covers factual information about all then-released named characters. This includes all Historical Characters (and Best Friend Characters) through Melody Ellison, all Girls of the Year through Gabriela McBride (including Sonali Matthews and Gwen Thompson), and all Contemporary Characters (Logan Everett is only briefly mentioned). There is also some discussion of then-available Truly Me dolls and items.

The sections are:

Chapter 1: American Girl Characters: Character bios and facts.
Chapter 2: Pet Pals: information about various Pets, including Historical Character Pets and pets for Modern Characters (both Girls of the Year and Modern Style Pets).
Chapter 3: Perfect Pastimes: select activities, with showcasing of outfits and accessories from the Truly Me collection.
Chapter 4: Amazing Places: information about selected collection items for various characters.
Chapter 5: Girls on the Go: information about selected character vehicles and methods of movement.

Each character section has about two pages with each animal section, "places", and vehicles or transport having one page each. At the end are galleries of all Historical Characters, Girls of the Year and the then-new Contemporary Characters (who are listed as "Introduced in 2017"), all forty then-available Truly Me dolls, animal gallery, and selected Historical Character Accessories (titled under BeForever Accessories), Girl of the Year/Contemporary Character Accessories, and Truly Me Accessories.

Trivia

Many sections, facts, and pages were reprinted exactly in the later 2021 Edition; the major difference other than added characters is that there is no longer a Truly Me section.
