Ava DuVernay Barbie® Doll | The Barbie Collection - http://pinterest.com/pin/476255729324162031/?s=3&m=blogger
I would have loved to have received this doll as a little girl. When I was coming up, there were no Black dolls except for rag dolls so I mostly got books and clothes for gifts.
Can you imagine how inspiring it would be for a budding writer, journalist, creative soul to get a doll honoring a leading writer, director, producer, storyteller, etc., etc., etc.?
This Ava D doll was initially released earlier this year as part of the toy company's custom made one of a kind "Sheroes" collection. Earlier this month a collectible version was produced but sold out in less than an hour.
Hopefully more will be produced.
