Girl of the Year Book Cover!!!

     I found this picture from Morgan on American Girl Fan Message Board!  Isn't Mckenna pretty?  It is also pretty much official that her last name will be Brooks.  I also found, thanks Samantha4Nellie, on the AG Fan Message Board, the book summaries.

Book 1. Mckenna
     Ten-year-old Mckenna is ready to start fourth grade, but when she begins to fall behind in school, Mckenna's teacher suggests she should get help from a tutor and with encouragement from Josie, a confident girl in a wheel chair, Mckenna manages to regain confidence in her abilities.

Book 2. Mckenna Ready to Fly!
     After Mckenn suffers an injury that causes her to worry about her place on the Shooting Star competetive gymnastics team,  she tries to help her tutor, Josie, overcome her fear of horseback riding, but as Mckenna and Josie become closer friends, one of Mckenna's teammates gets jealous of their friendship.

     Are you excited about Mckenna yet? So I'm pretty sure that Teagan will be her teammate who gets jealous of Mckenna and Josie. So the main cast for the movie is so far:
Jade Pettyjohn(who is eleven) as Mckenna Brooks,

Ysa Penarjo(who is eleven) as Teagan,(it's not official, but I really think that's who she's playing)

Nia Vardalos and Ian Zierring as Mckenna's parents,
Kerris Dorsey(who is thirteen) as Josie,
Will Woytowich as Cowboy Bob,



and Kaedence and Paiten Roach and Cally Berard.  Don't know who they play yet. Maybe Paiten and Kaedence are playing Mckenna's twin sisters?  I really don't who Cally Berard is either.
I will update as soon as I get more information!:D

Cool! I'm really excited for McKenna. I'm a little disappointed though, because now that the movie is confirmed for McKenna, we don't know if Julie will have a movie....

Yeah it is exciting, but I do agree that it would have been nice for a Julie movie.
