Celebrating girlhood |
111 East Chicago Avenue Chicago, IL 60611 +1 312 943 9400 http://www.americangirl.com |
When Louisa May Alcott penned her classic book "Little Women," she probably never imagined that an American retail center would someday pay such a complete tribute to young girls, too. Just around the corner from the Magnificent Mile shopping district, this three-story complex features a playhouse showcasing The American Girl Review, a cafe offering delicious meals, and a shop featuring American Girls dolls and clothing. Girls aged seven and up will find this an irresistible getaway. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Comic book collectors and newbies can both find something to love at this store, which stocks more than your standard superhero fare. Sure, you can find Superman and Spiderman here, but Chicago Comics is best known for stocking the work of independent artists who tell real stories of depth and sophistication in this illustrated medium. You can also find foreign comics such as Japanese manga and European titles here, as well as illustrated erotica. Chicago Comics also sells comic-related merchandise and clothing.
