Barbie Today - Booklist
Barbie has been an icon since the late 1950s, and this iteration of the Barbie through the Decades series (6 titles) shares her resurgence in modern popular culture. With the assistance of digital content accessible via QR codes throughout, this touches back to the genesis of Barbie by Ruth Handler and then elaborates on how Barbie has maintained relevance all the way into the 2020s with a modern mindset. From social media to new, visually diverse dolls, Barbie has modernized effectively and took off with even more newfound popularity after the release of the 2023 Barbie film. Short chapters coupled with integrated graphics and photographs and a sparkly pink border will surely entice readers, and concluding questions will keep them thinking about Barbie and her cultural impact long after they finish reading.
