By Barbara Rogan
This doll is absolutely beauutiful. She is a few inches taller then the popular 16 inch doll, but she could still share clothing ( it is just a bit shorter). She has a storybook about her and her life in Africa. A little pricey, but I would recommend her anyway.

By Debussey
I purchased this doll as a gift for my daughter. We have two other World Collection dolls (Zoe and Ling) and we like the quality of these dolls. Lulu's face is beautiful, and we really like the idea that each of these dolls has a unique face; in other words, unlike other doll companies, it isn't just the same doll with different colored eyes and hair, with different clothes. The face is actually a different sculpture, making the doll new with each country she represents. Would highly recommend this product.

By S. Taylor
I bought this doll for my daughter after I saw it in a store. I had a choice of several Kairto dolls, but I was taken with just how beautiful "LuLu" was and I loved that she was also athletic. I knew she was much more economical than an Am. Girl Doll (as are almost all Karito dolls). After purchasing the doll /but before giving her as a x-mas gift I started to worry if my daughter (age 5 1/2) would like her as much as I did. Our family does not share the same ethnic characteristics as Lulu from Kenya and I was wondering what my daughters reaction would be. It turns out that my "Anglo" daughter thought she was beautiful too, and commented on that for the next several days. After we got the doll out of the box I was able to see how well made the doll and the outfit are - very good quality. My daughter loves to dress her for daytime and then bedtime,(with extra outfits I bought)-good fine motor skills practice. We are only 1/2 way through the enclosed mystery book, which is not well written, but that is not a big deal to me. We are able to use the doll and her background in other educational ways, not just with the book. (Oh yeah - I am not a fan of buying a imaginative play item and then putting a child in front of the internet - so we have not explored the website yet.) I am very happy with this purchase, and highly recommend this doll to anyone.
