Toy Stories: The Secret Life of a Toy Designer by Stefanie Eskander

Stefanie Eskander has been designing toys and dolls for nearly 40 years, in a career that has spanned the decades from the 1980s to the present time. She has designed and developed toys that have been enjoyed by children all over the world: Cabbage Patch Kids, Popples, WWF Wrestling Buddies, Rainbow Brite, Winnie the Pooh, Jem, and so many others. But much of her work has been unseen and unproduced, as is typical of an industry where competition is fierce, and trade secrets need to stay secret. This book contains some of her favorite stories.
