This doll sports the clothing and accessories that a canopy researcher would wear and use when carrying out canopy research in the field. We had a tailor design clothes for a standard Barbie. We are currently trying to market this to Mattel, Inc. and other doll companies. This will present young girls and boys with a model that includes being adventurous, science- and nature-oriented, and active.

Good-neth, grace-ith. That hat ith so cute! And look at those lucious ropes!

It should really be Elevator-Doesn't-Make-It-to-the-Top Barbie...

[Behind Liberal Lines]

Shouldn't it have hairy legs, stringy hair and no make up?

I thought liberals wanted a "more realistic" Barbie...?

Sure is? Maybe its for running up a line so she can "tree sit" in somebody else's property.
