Marie-Grace and Cecile

Hi!
Any day now American Girl is going to release TWO new dolls named: Marie-Grace and Cecile! So I thought I'd tell you a little bit about them.
Marie-Grace is a emigrant girl from Massachusetts who moves to New Orleans in 1853 (notice American Girl is going off the usual dates ending in 4). Cecile is a wealthy African-American girl who becomes friends with Marie-Grace at their singing lessons. That year (1853) a terrible disease hits New Orleans called the Yellow Fever. It kills many people leaving some children orphaned. So Marie-Grace and Cecile help out at the local orphanage trying to keep the children from getting the Yellow Fever. 

The main color of the book series will be pale blue
