A legendary fashion designer for Barbie shares the story of her adventures working behind-the-scenes at Mattel, and spotlights the creations that transformed the world’s most famous doll into a style icon in this beautifully designed book—published in commemoration of Barbie’s sixtieth anniversary—illustrated with 100 full-color photographs, including many never-before-seen images of rare and one-of-a-kind pieces from the author’s private archive. Dressing Barbie is a dazzling celebration of the clothes that made America’s favorite doll, and the incredible woman behind them. For thirty-five years, Carol Spencer enjoyed an unparalleled reign as a Barbie fashion designer, creating some of Barbie’s most iconic looks from the early 1960s until the late 1990s. Barbie’s wide-ranging wardrobe—including princess gowns and daisy-print rompers, flirty sundresses and smart pantsuits— combined fashion trends and haute couture with a liberal dose of fantasy. In Dressing Barbie, the successful and prolific designer reminisces about her time at Mattel working with legendary figures such as Ruth Handler, Barbie’s creator, and Charlotte Johnson, the original Barbie designer, and talks about her best and most beloved clothing designs from each decade. But Carol’s most impressive creation is her own life. As Handler famously said, “Barbie always represented the fact that a girl has choices”—a credo Carol epitomized. In Dressing Barbie, she talks candidly about how she broke free of the constraints of the late 1950s to pursue a dazzling career and an independent life for herself. Over the course of her successful and prolific career, Carol won many accolades. She was the first designer to have her signature on the doll, the first to go on a signing tour, the first to design a limited-edition Barbie Doll for collectors, and the designer of the biggest selling Barbie of all time. Now, Carol is the first member of the inner circle to take fans behind the pink curtain, revealing the fashion world of Barbie, the quintessential California girl, as never before.

In short: A six-year-old girl named Lily lived in the busy town of Glamour Ville. She was crazy about fashion, which showed in her huge heart. Lily would run from school to her bedroom every day, where her most-loved things were kept: her Barbie toys. These weren't any dolls; they were Barbies, the fashion icons whose beautiful style and ease had inspired generations. For as long as Lily could remember, she had been collecting Barbies, each one had its own story and outfit. Lily's grandmother, Grandma Rose, walked into her room one fateful afternoon. In her own time, Grandma Rose was known for having great style. She had a special treat in store for Lily. She showed her that Barbie was more than just a toy; she was a style icon. Lily was interested and asked Grandma Rose to explain. Grandma Rose then told the story of Barbie's interesting life, including how Ruth Handler made her and how her goal is to encourage girls to dream big and believe in themselves. Lily was very open to new ideas, and Barbie's reputation as a leader who sparked new careers and fashions around the world had a big effect on her. It got Lily's attention, and she wanted to know more about what Barbie wore. Grandma Rose painted a lively picture of Barbie's wide range of clothes, which included everything from fancy ball gowns to useful business clothes. Barbie had turned into a pilot, a doctor, a scientist, and many other things, showing girls that they could do anything they set their minds to. Lily was very interested in the idea of becoming a fashion star like Barbie. Her grandmother praised her and told her that playing with Barbie dolls and putting on fashion shows in her bedroom were the start of her own fashion business. Lily set out to make her Barbie dolls into the most stylish and powerful fashion stars in Glamour Ville, driven by her newfound desire to succeed. She learned about great designers and fashion history, and then she started making tiny couture clothes for her toys. With a sewing machine, model, and sketches of her newest designs on the walls, her bedroom was turned into a busy fashion studio. People noticed Lily's drive and skill. She was asked to show off her designs for Barbie dolls at Glamourville's Annual Fashion Gala. This was a big deal for her folks. Lily's Barbie dolls walked the stage at the Fashion Gala, and the crowd was amazed by how creative and different they looked. Lily stood at her display and was moved to tears by the cheers and praise. Fashion designers, the media, and famous people praised her, amazed by her skills and determination. Lily's love of fashion grew over the years, and she finally went to design school and became a famous fashion designer in Glamour Ville. Her beloved Barbie dolls had always given her ideas, and she thought that her success was due to the lessons she had learned from Grandma Rose and her dolls. One day, Lily got a special letter inviting her to the Barbie Fashion Institute. There, she would work with the real Barbie on a fashion line. When Lily worked with Barbie to make a line that combined Barbie's classic style with Lily's modern designs, she reached her goal in full circle. The selection was a big deal all over the world, giving young girls and fashion fans ideas. Lily's experience made her want to help young designers-to-be. She does this by showing them how important it is to be inspired, believe in themselves, and remember that goals can come from strange places, like favorite childhood toys like Barbie. Lily carried on Barbie's tradition as a fashion icon. She is a symbol of how icons last, how powerful dreams can be, and how young girls can be anything they want to be. Story Starts Hear: A long time ago, there was a girl named Lily who lived in the busy town of Glamour Ville. She loved clothes so much that they were bigger than her heart. She rushed home from school every day, took off her shoes, and went straight to her room, where she kept her most valuable things: her Barbie toys. Lily's room was a beautiful place where she could be creative. When you walked in, there would be a crazy mix of colors, textures, and small mannequins. The number of Barbie dolls she had was truly amazing. They were carefully arranged on the shelves, and each one had its own clothes, decorations, and personality. These dolls were more than just toys; they were her friends, confidantes, and creative guides. Her grandma, Grandma Rose, who used to be very into fashion, sparked her interest in it. Lily thought Grandma Rose's stories about how beautiful she was as a child and how perfect her style was were like fairy tales. She would be amazed as her grandmother talked about her life in fashion, from going to galas with famous people to making her own clothes. Lily's soft heart was stirred by those events to want to do more. Once the sun went down, Lily's room turned into a busy fashion studio, and a warm glow spread through Glamour Ville. A small sewing machine was sitting on a table with bright thread spools all around it. The newest work in progress was proudly shown off on a small doll. Lily's design ideas were drawn on the walls, making her dreams come true. Lily first tried her hand at fashion by drawing on her Barbie dolls. She would spend hours carefully making them high-end clothes. Her skilled fingers sewed tiny seams and added tiny buttons and lace trim, making her dream come true. Every outfit she wore was a work of art that was based on different styles she saw in fashion magazines and books. But it wasn't just the clothes. Lily named each Barbie doll after a different person. Lily made a stylish spacesuit by hand for one of the dolls and turned it into a brave astronaut. Someone else wore a chef's hat and an apron and dressed up as a famous cook. Lily had a huge imagination, and her toys were her endless dreams come true. One day, Lily was finishing up a beautiful evening dress for her favorite Barbie when she got a letter she didn't expect. There was an offer to Glamour Ville's Annual Fashion Gala, a big event that the best people in fashion attend. Lily's heart beat fast as she read the invitation because she knew this was her chance to show everyone how good she was. Lily and her Barbie dolls got ready for the Fashion Gala with her parents' help and unwavering dedication. Each doll was dressed in a beautiful outfit that Lily had made, and they all stood in a line on the little runway in her bedroom. When the Gala night came around, the huge hall was filled with excitement. As the fashion show started, Lily's Barbie dolls sashayed down the runway, capturing the attention of the crowd with their beauty and grace. There was a lot of cheering and praise, and Lily felt like she'd accomplished something she'd never done before. She has taken the first step toward her goal of becoming a fashion star. After the presentation, fashion designers, reporters, and even famous people came up to Lily to tell her how much they admired her amazing ability. They were amazed at how creative she was and how she could turn a childhood hobby into art. Lily smiled happily because she knew she was about to start a journey that would change her life. Lily has kept up her interest in fashion over the years. After going to design school and getting better at what she did, she became famous as a fashion designer in Glamour Ville. She got ideas from her Barbie dolls, who taught her about style, imagination, and the strength of dreams. Lily got a letter one day that would change her life forever. She was shocked when she saw that it was an offer to the Barbie Fashion Institute. She would get to meet the real Barbie and work with her on a fashion line. Lily was excited as she set out on this journey. She met Barbie herself at the Barbie Fashion Institute. Barbie was a fashion icon who had inspired generations of girls. They worked together to make a line that combined Lily's modern designs with Barbie's classic style. Young girls all over the world were inspired to believe in themselves and their goals by the collection, which went on tour around the world. These were not any ordinary dolls, though. They were Barbies, fashion icons who had inspired generations with their amazing style and ease. For as long as Lily could remember, she had been collecting Barbies. Each one had its own story and outfit. Lily thought that Barbies were more than just plastic dolls. They were like doors that led to a world of endless creativity and potential. Her goals and dreams were reflected in each Barbie. She used them as blank canvases to write stories about fashion and adventure. These dolls were more than just things to her; they were her friends, her quiet confidantes, and the main characters in the exciting stories she made up in her head when she was young.

Girls and computer games—and the movement to overcome the stereotyping that dominates the toy aisles. Many parents worry about the influence of video games on their children's lives. The game console may help to prepare children for participation in the digital world, but at the same time it socializes boys into misogyny and excludes girls from all but the most objectified positions. The new "girls' games" movement has addressed these concerns. Although many people associate video games mainly with boys, the girls games' movement has emerged from an unusual alliance between feminist activists (who want to change the "gendering" of digital technology) and industry leaders (who want to create a girls' market for their games). The contributors to From Barbie® to Mortal Kombat explore how assumptions about gender, games, and technology shape the design, development, and marketing of games as industry seeks to build the girl market. They describe and analyze the games currently on the market and propose tactical approaches for avoiding the stereotypes that dominate most toy store aisles. The lively mix of perspectives and voices includes those of media and technology scholars, educators, psychologists, developers of today's leading games, industry insiders, and girl gamers.

Young Children, Pedagogy and the Arts is an innovative text that describes practices and research that cross all five strands of the arts—visual, drama, music, dance, and media—and illuminates ways of understanding children and their arts practices that go beyond the common traditions. The book: - Offers practical and rich illustrations of teachers’ and children’s work based on international research that integrates theory with practice; - Brings a critical lens to arts education; - Includes summaries, reflective questions, and recommended further readings with every chapter. Young Children, Pedagogy and the Arts provides a more nuanced understanding of the arts through an exploration of specific instances in which committed teachers and researchers are discovering what contemporary multimodal tools offer to young children. Chapters contain examples of ‘doing’ the arts in the early years, new ways of teaching, and how to use emerging technologies to develop multiliteracies, equity, agency, social and cultural capital, and enhance the learning and engagement of marginalized children.
