pickThis is a reprint of a 1994 book chronicling Barbie‘s place sociologically in society, the history of her conception, and a bit of business history of Mattel. The only update is a new preface based on the Barbie movie. Still, it‘s an interesting book — just don‘t expect all the info to be updated.
pickWhat an insightful look into the world of Barbie!
This book was originally published in the 90s, but this edition has a new preface which does discuss the Barbie movie. In the preface, the author also discusses that she left the book unchanged so it‘s a large reflection of the 90s.

January 2 #NewYearNewBooks ToyCover since I watched The Barbie movie I have to go with this. I love Barbie, I still have my original Barbie. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
This movie was added to the HBO Max streaming service tonight and I streamed it for free. I‘m glad I didn‘t see it at the movie theater. This is my review for this movie from the Likewise app. I‘m counting this as a #holidaymovie for the #wintergames.

My daughter's first attempt at #iceskating over the summer! She went with her summer camp and had so much fun! As we're in Florida either of us have only been ice skating one time 😂

I parked across the street from this house the other day when I took my sister to lunch. I especially liked the little pink dog and the I am Kenough t-shirt. #Halloween #Barbie
pickI loved everything about this book!
This book is written by Carol Spencer, who was one of the Barbie fashion designers, and chronicles her tenure at Mattel. Prior to reading this book, I had no idea who she was. I enjoyed learning about her career and the behind the scenes look at how Barbie fashions were created and the process it took to make them.

I‘m at a book industry conference and they had this fun Barbie themed Photo Booth. Wearing my dragon dress that I like to refer to as my Fourth Wing dress.
I took a quiz on bookriot to determine what Barbie I would be based on my book choices and I got author Barbie!!! 💗
