Tracing developments in toy making and marketing across the evolving landscape of the 20th century, this encyclopedia is a comprehensive reference guide to America's most popular playthings and the culture to which they belong. From the origins of favorite playthings to their associations with events and activities, the study of a nation's toys reveals the hopes, goals, values, and priorities of its people. Toys have influenced the science, art, and religion of the United States, and have contributed to the development of business, politics, and medicine.

Alphabetically arranged entries trace developments in toy making and toy marketing across the evolving landscape of 20th-century America. In addition to discussing the history of America's most influential toys, the book contains specific entries on the individuals, organizations, companies, and publications that gave shape to America's culture of play from 1900 to 2000. Toys from the two decades that frame the 20th century are also included, as bridges to the fascinating past—and the inspiring future—of American toys.

The band lands a fantastic opportunity to travel to Russia, but the “international tour” as they dub it, brings out Trinity’s take-charge personality. Almost too confidently, she tries to control fundraising efforts and the tour to avoid another mess by Harmony. But cultural challenges, band member clashes, the intense touring schedule, and some messes of her own convince Trinity she’s not really in charge after all. God is. And his plan includes changed lives, deepened faith, and improved relationships with her mom and friends.

Those eyes! That nose! Those unforgettable ears! Who'd have thought Mr. Potato Head would enjoy such a long and distinguished career?Originally introduced in 1952, it was the first toy advertised on television, and its popularity sent children running into the kitchen to beg a potato from Mom. It came to life again in Disney's Toy Story movies decades later, where it was immortalized as a bona fide icon of the childhood toy box.Now the beloved spud gets the royal treatment in our special 50th anniversary kit, containing new and improved 50th anniversary facial parts, potato, and body, plus a wonderfully entertaining full-color book on the history of one of America's favorite playthings. With enormous nostalgic appeal, this kit appeals to everyone from adults who owned a Mr. Potato Head kit in the 1950s to a new generation of youngsters drawn to a simple toy that encourages fun, imaginative play.
