    1st printing. Written by Cindy Eagan. Art and cover by Amy Bates. A beautifully illustrated picture book about Barbie-the most famous doll in the world-and her visionary creator, Ruth Handler. 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. This beautiful hardcover picture book will inspire children ages 3 to 7 to believe that anything is possible-especially with Barbie! Hardcover, 8-in. x 11-in., 40 pages, full color. Cover price $19.99.
