We used to have a tiny little store called "Little Wishes" at the mall. Probably 28 years ago when I was 10. It had all Hello Kitty and Sanrio stuff. It was so cool. Little tiny pencils, paper, stampers. I loved it.
I found this website yesterday, Hello Kitty Hell. Oh my gosh, this man is funny. His wife LOVES Hello Kitty and she has an eBay store. So evidently she buys stuff for her store but also for herself. I think they lived in the U.S. but are now in Japan. That is the place to be for Kitty stuff. His stories are hilarious.
But he's taught me a bunch already. I'll share: She was born in London, England when her father, George, was on transfer there with his company. Her last name is White. She's 5 apples tall and weighs 3 apples. She has a twin sister Mimmy. Kitty wears her hairbow on the left while Mimmy's is on the right. Her mom's name is Mary.
This is Anthony & Margaret White. Kitty's grandparents.
