This doll features a softball uniform complete with visor and cleats. A Louisville Slugger® bat and soft ball both with Dot's signature acoompany her. The doll is a twelve inch doll. She has a soft huggable body with arms and legs that bend so you can pose her in many ways. Your child will enjoy dressing and undressing this doll as they engage in role-play fun. Different outfits are sold separately. This product comes with a hard cover book, "Go for It" where Dot tells in her own words what it was like to be denied the chance to play and how she dealt with that rejection. Listen to her suggestions for "being yourself," for "finding your passion," for "following your dream." The book includes 140 pages and color photos. This is a great product for your child and will help build self-esteem.
