* HalloweenEpisode: The book ''Angelina's Halloween''. Angelina and her best friend Alice decide to be dancing fireflies. Angelina, [[AesopAmnesia forgetting her lesson about being kind to her younger relatives]], ignore her younger sister Polly wanting to be part of their group while thinking she's not old enough and talking her into being a BedsheetGhost, annoyed she has to tag along and keeps copying her. She then loses Polly at the HauntedHouse the children explore and doesn't realize it until the end of the night [[spoiler:when the BedsheetGhost they've spent the night with after the haunted house is revealed to be Henry]] and she has to dart back and find her.

* NewBabyEpisode: The book ''Angelina's Baby Sister.'' Angelina is initially excited to have a baby sister, but becomes upset when she learns that her mother needs rest and the baby needs attention. Her mother doesn't notice her new ballet prize while taking care of Polly, the doctor is over often, and her visiting grandparents want to see the baby before her new dance. Angelina gets [[GreenEyedMonster very upset and jealous]] at everyone paying attention to the new baby and storms off to her room, thinking that [[TheUnfavorite no one cares about her anymore]]. She throws a tantrum and ends up breaking her china doll prize before falling into a crying heap. Her parents and grandparents then [[AnAesop reassure her that she is just as loved as before]] it's just that the baby needs lots of attention now.

* AmusementPark: Part of ''Angelina at the Fair''. Angelina, upset that she has to bring her younger cousin Henry along with her to the May Day Fair festival grounds, bullies her younger cousin. She drags him everywhere she wants to go without any concern for his discomfort and doesn't listen to what he wants to do. When he leaves her, she thinks he's gone missing in the Haunted House and ends up crying. When she finds him next to the balloon seller--the first thing he wanted to do, which she'd ignored--she [[HeelRealization finally starts to do things ''he'' likes]] and the day ends well.

* OfficialCosplayGear: Through Toys/AmericanGirl; items for kids included her Christmas coat, pajamas, and a set of ballet leotard and tutu.

* AccessoryWearingCartoonAnimal: The majority of the cast in early books, being mice, almost never wear anything; her father, for example, only wears glasses (and later a vest) while her mother mostly wears an apron in the house and a shawl outside of it (and a bedgown after having Polly). Angelina initially wears a hairbow and little else outside of dance class. The characters later have more full costumes and clothing but are still [[BarefootCartoonAnimal barefoot]] outside of dancing, and even later books have everyone [[FullyDressedCartoonAnimal in full outfits]], complete with shoes. The earlier the book, the more likely the characters are to be only in one or two articles of clothing.
