Books Aim To Teach Modern History
Girls can now learn history, Barbie-style.
Mattel is getting together with Golden Books to launch the “Barbie Diary of the Decade” series. The Washington Post says the first two books focus on 1964 and 1976.
The ’60s diary has Barbie hosting a Beatles party the first night they appear on the “Ed Sullivan Show.” Barbie also learns about the Civil Rights Act with her African-American friend, Christie.
In the ’70s volume, Disco Barbie plans a dance and travels to Philadelphia to celebrate the Bicentennial and see Rocky on the art museum steps.
