After noticing how her daughter played with “grown-up” paper dolls, Ruth Handler wanted to create a doll that would inspire little girls to use their huge imaginations and big dreams about their futures. While others told her it wasn’t possible, Ruth Handler proved them all wrong by creating the most famous doll ever. Since then, Barbie has evolved with the times, featuring inspiring careers, real-life role models, and many more dolls sure to spark kids' imagination.
This beautiful hardcover picture book will encourage children to believe that anything is possible — and remind them that, just like Ruth, they can take a simple idea and turn it into something big. Since 1959 Barbie has shown girls that they can live their dreams, from an astronaut to a chef to a president; this book will remind kids that girls can do anything!
