one of the best killer bio's i have read so far --- for a good sized book i almost read this in one sitting!!!! written well and once started you just wanted to keep reading hard to put down!

My first three grandaughters all experienced these wonderful dolls. This book marks the impact of this very special toy. My daughter-in-law and I took the second and third grandaughter to Babyland General Hospital. If you ever encountered these dolls, you'll love this book.

FROM AMAZON: "Tthe complete story of the Cabbage Patch Phenomenon as it's never been told before." "In November 1983, the world witnessed the beginnings of Cabbage Patch Madness, a Phenomenon unrivaled in intensity and show more impact in the annals of American Popular Culture. Across the land, in virtually every major city, young adults, middle aged parents, even kindly grandmothers were risking life and limb, joining legions of unruly shoppers in their attempts to purchase one of Coleco's Cabbage Patch Kids, cuddly stuffed dolls many would call ugly...the face only a mother could love. The father of the Kids, Xavier Roberts, was a north Georgia mountain boy who rose from poverty to become an indispensable force for Coleco, a multi-million dollar titan in the toy and game industry." show less
