"Doesn't she look pretty? Everyone said." (836). "Barbie Doll" is a very relatable poem to many girls. In the poem, there is a little girl who seems to be an over-all, well rounded individual. But one day, she is told she has a big nose and legs. She does what she can to ignore it and make herself look and feel better, but it's not forgotten. The earlier quote is from her funeral after she has died. It's relatable because, in all honesty, there's a lot of pressure on girls to look their best at all times. Also, it's relatable because it makes one realize how one comment can change a person's outlook on life forever.
