Description
A fresh and fun take on Barbie lore…clever and satisfying. – Shelby Van Pelt, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Remarkably Bright Creatures
She was only eleven-and-a-half inches tall, but she would change the world. Barbie is born in this bold new novel by USA Today bestselling author Renée Rosen.
When Ruth Handler walks into the boardroom of the toy company she co-founded and pitches her idea for a doll unlike any other, she knows what she’s setting in motion. It might just take the world a moment to catch up.
In 1956, the only dolls on the market for little girls let them pretend to be mothers. Ruth’s vision for a doll shaped like a grown woman and outfitted in an enviable wardrobe will let them dream they can be anything.
As Ruth assembles her team of creative rebels–head engineer Jack Ryan who hides his deepest secrets behind his genius and designers Charlotte Johnson and Stevie Klein, whose hopes and dreams rest on the success of Barbie’s fashion–she knows they’re working against a ticking clock to get this wild idea off the ground.
In the decades to come–through soaring heights and devastating personal lows, public scandals and private tensions– each of them will have to decide how tightly to hold on to their creation. Because Barbie has never been just a doll–she’s a legacy.
Includes a Readers Guide and Exclusive Vintage Barbie Photos!
