Papa, Can You Hear Me?

Dear Karen-

I love that toy manufacturers have caught on to the fact that not everyone in this country is Caucasian. I think it's only right that baby dolls and Barbie's should come in a variety of skin tones. I do wish they came in a variety of sizes, but perhaps that will come in the future. Imagine my surprise, though, to discover these - available from Target online:
The Torah Set and Shabbat Set! There is also a Passover Set and a Rosh Hashanah set.

I doubt you can get a dress-up Hasidic Suit set, complete with side curls, though. Perhaps that, too, will come in the future.

L'Chaim!
Julie
