In my opinion it is important to have a doll to love, we all are drawn to different companies for different reasons, I think the Newberry dolls are a lovely place to start.Karen M.

My daughter loves playing with dolls so I know whatever I purchase will be adored and played with often. Debating between a Maplelea and a Newberry. Advice?

It ...Hi Shelley, Maplelea is a wonderful doll line. It is very high quality. I have two of the dolls and I highly recommend them for many reasons. Their wigs are higher quality then the American Girl Dolls, the accessories and clothing are made to surpass Canada's standards for toys. The items that Maplelea Sells are some of the best made doll items I have ever seen and worked with. That being said the doll line that Sears is offering makes a wonderful doll. Some people call them "starter dolls" to see if the child will bond with the doll before spending the money on a higher quality doll. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and that bond between daughter and doll is one only time will tell. In my own opinion I do believe that the investment in a Maplelea Doll is worth the money. I believe Maplelea Dolls like the American Girl Dolls are heirloom quality meaning they can be passed down through the generations. Karen M.
