For decades, Barbie’s optimistic can-do attitude and perseverance changed the narrative of what girls can accomplish. Smart is the new beautiful and we’re here for it. Female empowerment and the importance of friendship are at the forefront of the brand and it’s something that’ll benefit every little one out there.
With the release of the upcoming Barbie movie, we’re reminded of all the ways Barbie taught us all how to dream big, to have empathy and courage. With the many styles, talents and careers Barbie has had through the years, kids everywhere can see themselves in some version of the doll.
Whether it’s as a pet doctor or a ballerina, the girl is the pinnacle of “living the dream.” Here are some of our favorite Barbie books to celebrate how rad she is.

Who doesn’t love stickers? This 32-page sticker and activity book puts Barbie’s BFF, Brooklyn, in the spotlight. When she visits the Dreamhouse, Brooklyn, Barbie, and her friends do all their favorite things. They play with puppies, bake, and sing (and more), while your little one looks for hidden objects in the seek-and-find activity areas or solves puzzles in the “Bestie Bonus.”
Great for ages four to eight with more than 200 stickers will keep your kids busy for hours. They’ll read (and play with this one) in their toddler car seats instead of screen time.
