Since her creation in 1959, Barbie has become an icon of femininity to girls all over the world. In this monograph, author Emily R. Aguiló-Pérez explores the ways through which women and girls in Puerto Rico construct their own identities in relation to femininity, body image, race, and nationalism through Barbie play.
