As a Barbie collector, it is important to understand the history of the doll and this book gives you an interesting look at the founder. I have read other books about Ruth Handler but wanted to get her own perspective too.

If you are a Barbie collector, or if you just like reading books about famous or interesting people this is the book for you. Ruth Handler was successful bussiness woman at a time where there were so few of them that most people did not know there were any. This is the story of how the Handlers went from a very young married couple of modest means making plastic trinkets in the garage of their appartment to creating the biggest toy manufacturing company in the world. If you are a fan of Rags to Richs stories this is a well done easy read.
Has her signature and everything. Hope to crack it open to read very soon.
