Review:Let’s Call Her Barbie by Renee Rosen is the perfect escapist novel as you dive into the creating, designing, naming, marketing and selling of the iconic Barbie doll. Whether you owned Barbie or you didn’t, she is an all-American staple millions of little girls’ lives since 1956.This story will grab you in from the very first page where you’ll meet Ruth Handler. She was an A+ feminist well before her time and had a creative vision so many tried to tamp down. Her work ethic was hearty, yet she sadly put work over her family’s needs and demands. Her kids suffered from this and the book shows many of examples this. It often broke my heart. I loved the ins and outs of all the characters’ lives and boy, some of them were juicy. Jack, the man who wore lifts in his shoes, was the lover boy at Mattel and I loved learning about how the designers created incredibly detailed outfits for Barbie. Who knew they were made by real fashion designers? Not me!The statement of feminism was clearly made in the book yet there were many parents who refused to let their girls have a Barbie doll. Barbie worked outside the home and many parents planned for their girls to be homemakers, not working women. I’ve facilitated book clubs for this book and have found it so interesting how many women had either positive or adverse opinions about Barbie that were fed to them by their mothers. Her perfect body proportions could lead to eating disorders, but on the flip side, her impeccably groomed attire and brushed hair could influence their daughters to look better, thus, find a husband.There’s just so much to dissect in this fun, easy, informative read! Book clubs – get your copies – you’ll love it. @reneerosen_ Berkley Publishing Group 📘: Did you play with Barbies as a kid?
