In the years before 1998, girls had a lot of questions. After 1998, girls had a book of answers to pour over in the form of The Care and Keeping of You, published by the American Girl Doll company.

When a nervous vampire shows up to run The Care and Keeping of You under a microscope, there’s no saying what she’ll discover - about shame, devotion, and the very world that made her a monster.
