She may be the one and only adult doll who had stolen the heart of millions of children.
Every profession assigned to Barbie by its creators is the ones which can be handled by woman and can be considered as motivational to children. She has become a pilot, doctor, nurse, army officer, fire fighter, life guard, world peace ambassador, flight attendant and even astronaut.
