American Girl author Valerie Tripp to speak at event commemorating Colonial Williamsburg and girlhood
by Claire Gifford, The Triangle, July 17, 2025
Content creator Babbity Kate, who produces American Girl commentary on TikTok and Youtube, noted that the brand has had a resurgence since 2020. She attributes this trend, at least partially, to adults having had more time during the pandemic to rediscover their childhood interests.
“People are really interested in re-examining and reviving these parts of their own girlhood that sometimes get a bit overlooked, but it’s so joyful to return to them, to dig into them, sometimes in a more critical way,” Kate told The Triangle.
“It matters that we take the media of girlhood seriously because it is really formative and it is real art,” Kate said.
