1998, Mattel# 21740 Barbie Had a Little Lamb-First in The Nursery Rhyme Collection. F14
Wherever Barbie goes, her fleecy friend is sure to follow. Barbie Had a Little Lamb is the first in a collection that'll feature Barbie in classic nursery-rhyme settings. Here she's pretty as a picture with long auburn ringlets; a blue satin, button-fitted jacket top; and a yellow-and-white-striped skirt with white pointelle overlay. She looks more like the heroine of a romantic novel than a little miss whose lamb followed her to school one day, but the doll's still a lovely collectible. Her lamb is hard plastic. Barbie Had a Little Lamb also comes with a brush that's not likely to be used on her set curls, which are wrapped in a light-weight same-colored net. --Nadine Mendoza-Province
