Description
A picture book biography about Beatrice Alexander, founder of the iconic Madame Alexander doll. Beatrice's family ran a doll hospital in their home in New York's Lower East Side, where she grew to love fixing and making dolls.
Beatrice dreamed of becoming an artist, but her family couldn’t afford to send her to sculpting school.
She never stopped dreaming, even as she stayed home, graduated from high school, and got married.
When WWI broke out, she made cloth dolls modeled after nurses to support the war effort.
After the war, Beatrice founded Madame Alexander, creating some of the first plastic and collectible dolls, dolls that never break.
