For More Information

The JustPretendDolls group at YahooGroups is a good place to ask questions about these dolls.

The four Friend to Friend dolls were contemporary girl dolls from Just Pretend. They were Jada, the naturalist, Kiri, the artist, Maggie, the horse rancher and Tasha, the ballet student. These dolls each had a lovely starter outfit, an extra "play" outfit and several accessory sets appropriate to her hobby. For example, Kiri comes dressed in a beautiful silk outfit with beret and you could buy her a painting outfit along with an easel, real paints, a cute little zippered portfolio, and so on. A unique feature of these dolls was the pen pal program; they came with a letter to your child from the doll’s character and once you registered your doll purchase with the company, your child would receive additional letters every few weeks for a total of 12 letters. This was a nice twist on the storybook idea and very appealing to kids who love getting letters in the mail. The  F2F dolls were also $84.95, like the DDD dolls.
