Cabbage Patch Dolls (Outside Reading Blog #4

The ever so popular cabbage patch dolls have come out with four new dolls. Since 1983, Cabbage Patch has created dolls from Elvis to Donald Trump and Ellen DeGeneres to Oprah. Now, Cabbage has created presidential and vice presidential look-a-likes. There's Barrack Obama, Joe Biden, John McCain, and Sarah Palin. The dolls have been sported with clothes and accessories to resemble the actual candidates. For example, Sarah Palin's doll is wearing a red suit, her signature, rimless glasses, and heels. The author says that these candidates were perfect for the dolls because they are all so different and have so many different personalities. These dolls will be auctioned off on ebay starting Thursday and ending November fourth. Along with the four candidate dolls, six limited-edition, 25th anniversary that have been created to look exactly like the first cabbage patch dolls, will also be auctioned off. The proceeds from the auction will go to the Marine's Toys for Tots foundation. This article was written by Derrik J. Lang.
