Catching monsters in Pokémon Go sounds deceptively simple: find a creature, and throw an imaginary ball at it by swiping up on your phone screen. The reality is a lot more frustrating -- if you don't flick your finger in a perfectly straight l...

Also, the American Girl doll collection that the article mentioned is the brand of doll that Shy wanted to get Emma for her 6th Bday, ~$130.
