 ;">She's an icon. She's fun and aspirational. She's stirring controversy a
 nd outrage. Her name is Barbie. In 1956\, Ruth Handler\, cofounder of a bu
 dding toy company\, embarks on a mission to upend the marketplace by creat
 ing a controversial doll: one that looks like a grown woman. Unlike the cu
 rrent trend of baby dolls that reinforces traditional roles of&nbsp\;mothe
 rhood\, this doll will empower little girls to be and do anything. And Bar
 bie is born. Not everyone sees Barbie as a a positive influence\, but Ruth
  knows this doll is destined for greatness. With the help of head engineer
  Jack Ryan and fashion designer Stevie Klein\, they forge ahead\, their ow
 n identities becoming entwined with the persona of the doll. For Ruth\, Ba
 rbie fills a void left by the mother who abandoned her and the daughter wh
 o resents her ambition. Jack\, Mattel's unlikely Casanova\, hides his deep
 est secrets behind the genius of his engineering\, and Stevie pins her pro
 fessional future and sense of self on Barbie's fashion designs. In the dec
 ades that follow\, the Barbie team spins the doll into a cultural phenomen
 on. But with every great success comes the fall\, and the problems at Matt
 el are just getting started. In the cutthroat world of toy-making\, greed 
 and public scandals threaten to tear down everything Ruth has built. But B
 arbie is more than just a doll for her -- she's a legacy\, one Ruth will d
 o anything to protect. From USA Today bestselling author Ren&eacute\;e Ros
 en comes a riveting novel about the team of creative rebels who challenged
  convention\, broke molds\, and beat the odds to invent the most famous do
 ll of all time<br /><a href="https://rmlib.na.iiivega.com/search/card?id=e
