This is an odd book, but a very imaginative tale. It‘s a pretty slow unfolding of events, but not necessarily boring. It‘s hard to pin it to a genre, it‘s mystery, romance fantasy and adventure.

I liked the feminist stance towards the end.

Mrs_B Just realised that is a less than useless review. Apologies all! 1mo
Bette Not at all useless, you mentioned the genres and how imaginative it was, all that is intriguing. 👍 1mo

A childhood favorite. My friend and I tried to write our own book (just like the two friends in Brink's book) about two friends who visit a dude ranch because, of course, we knew everything about growing up on a dude ranch and meeting some cowboys! 🤠🤠

Karisimo Love the story to go with the title!! ❣️ 2mo
dabbe @Karisimo 🧡🤎💛 I think I still have that book in my garage--in a spiral notebook with Jacyln Smith from CHARLIE\'S ANGELS on the cover! 🤩 2mo

I loved the illustrations of this #PictureBook —perfect color choices, and the illustrations truly made the story come alive. The story itself was just okay—good message, the importance of believing in yourself, but the word choices seemed geared more for older kids who may not be willing to read a picture book. #BBRC #LetterA

LibrarianRyan Didn't she do another book. Maybe one after her first child? 4mo
Librarybelle @LibrarianRyan Maybe…I‘m not sure! 4mo

This is a reprint of a 1994 book chronicling Barbie‘s place sociologically in society, the history of her conception, and a bit of business history of Mattel. The only update is a new preface based on the Barbie movie. Still, it‘s an interesting book — just don‘t expect all the info to be updated.
