Barbie What A Doll! by Laura Jacobs

I really don't have anything to review in terms of this book. I bought it several years ago under the pretense that it contained many Barbie fashions. However, it is honestly nothing more than a glorified picture book. It contains zero information and in the four years I've owned it, I've never identified anything using it. Basically, it is intended to be a fun book that demonstrates Barbie's evolving fashions through the years. The author writes as Barbie and tells her "story." The pictures do not appear to be her own--they all look like stock photos taken by Mattel, or ones used for trading cards. None of the dolls or outfits featured in the book are labeled. Not to mention, some dolls are repeated multiple times. While the pictures are rather large, since they are not labeled, they are useless for id. Laura Jacobs did put a date next to each picture, but I'm guessing she used release dates, and very vague ones at that. I would definitely never repurchase this book, and if I needed the room, I would feel no pain donating it.
