I think that Barbie dolls are my favorite doll.  Mattel, Inc. has been manufacturing them since 1959!
Wow! Has it really been that long?! I had a few when I was little! Which Barbie was your favorite?
I think that I liked the Barbie Basics dolls the most.  Bill Greening created them, and they were released in the spring of 2010.
I don't think I'm familiar with that particular doll. Are Barbies still very popular?
Unfortunately, sales have been declining since 2014.
Oh no! I wonder why that is? It's such a classic toy!
I'm not sure, since it's been such an American cultural staple for so long.  They were created by Ruth Handler, who is said to have modeled it after Bild Lilli, a German doll.
