Very different from your typical Barbie

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] pros: Cute collectible Barbie that my daughter enjoyed even more after reading her inspirational story on the back of the box. At first she thought the Barbie was a character pilot from a movie we had just watched about Navy pilots. Then, when she realized this was a real person…her eyes grew big and she was amazed at the story. She became saddened that Bessie was killed bu the very thing she loved to do. Thus a true hero. Some minor cons: To remove from the box this toy required significant strength, large scissors, and patience. While playing with the Barbie my daughter needed adult assistance to remove the boots and hat and the clothes are not easily removed.
Summary: As with all her Barbies, they get regular showers and change clothes often and go for rides in the car and sometimes sit by the campfire some nights. This one will be no exception and my daughter is looked forward to spending time with her inspirational new Barbie!

Bessie Coleman

My daughter brought to my attention that she was going to choose Bessie Coleman as her African-American owner for Black History Month at her school wax museum play. So we decided to make a costume for her to honor. Bessie Coleman.
