In case you missed the awesome launch of JOSS - a hard of hearing surfer doll from American Girl a month or so ago - Joss is a fierce surfer girl who never backs down from a challenge—even if it means taking a chance on something new, like trying out for cheer. But landing a spot on the cheer team is harder than it looks: Joss is hard of hearing and often misses the count. She’s determined to prove herself as a cheerleader and a surfer girl and realizes that an all-in attitude and an open mind might help her fly higher than ever before.


Now, Joss has a tricked out VW Van that is pretty much everyone's dream van, if you surf or skateboard.


Joss loves riding to the beach in her brother Liam’s surf van—it has everything they need for a great day in the sun. They can sleep, watch videos, and hang out between surf sessions, and there’s plenty of pretend food to snack on! It has working headlights, turn signals, windshield wipers, and radio. There are sounds for the horn and ignition, and a button to push to hear a message from Joss. Plus, there’s a storage bench that folds into a bed, a pop-up stove, and a fold-out table.

Set also includes:

* Two graphic throw pillows for lounging
* A bed pillow for sleeping
* A blanket and sleeping bag for camping out in the van
* A mattress for the fold-out bed
* A patterned rug to keep sand off the van floor
* A beach scene towel for drying off
* Two sticker sheets to decorate the interior and exterior of the van
* Cooking supplies including a pot, a pan, and tongs for making meals on the pullout stove
* A vase and flower for the dashboard
* A laptop with two reversible laptop screens to edit videos and register for the cheer team
* Five photos of cheer competitions and surfing

* A surf magazine that includes an article about Tina Hart, Joss’s surfing idol
* A plate with a cool wave graphic
* A juice can and a smoothie bottle
* A burrito and a sandwich for quick grab-and-go lunches
* A parfait with fruit, yogurt, and granola and a spoon to eat it with
* A bag of pretzels to snack on
* A bunch of bananas and a container of raspberries
* Two popsicles with wrappers
* A surfboard and two rack straps to attach it to the van’s roof rack
* A skateboard Joss can use to practice her surfing moves out of the water
* A dog bowl for when Joss’s bulldog, Murph, comes to the beach
* A first aid bag with bandage stickers, ointment, a bandage wrap, an ice pack, scissors, five gauze     pads, pain reliever, peroxide, and a Surfer’s Handbook with first-aid info
* A video projector with a fabric screen and a set of image discs for watching surf videos on the beach
