did anyone else ever see the 'poor pitiful pearl' doll? since I was the square peg that never fit round holes, that was what I got rather than a barbie. I also had a shelf of 'storybook' dolls which I was NOT permitted to play with, just look, don't touch. Of course, I did touch and comb their hair which ruined the 'do', undid their clothes which was sewn on not snapped or velcro so I did NOT get away with it.

My 5 year old granddaughter got a suitcase of every dark haired Barbie, or whatever their names are, last Channukah since I don't want her to grow up thinking the BLONDE bombshell is the standard. Of course, I think she should set her own standard for everything.
