Daddy's Girl looks critically at little girls as both the objects of and consumers of popular culture. Looking at examples ranging from the comic strip Little Orphan Annie in the 1920s to Minipops in the 1980s and Popskool in the 1990s, as well as girls holding talent contests and watching TV at home, the author confronts the way in which they are simultaneously portrayed as innocent and erotic and asks what this means for the little working-class girls who long to join the glamorous ranks of the famous.

Walkerdine did a lot of fieldwork recording young schoolgirls. However, I do not feel she is using her recordings to full effect here. She frequently says, "I want to argue," "I want to explore," but she ends up merely asserting her opinion or at best appealing to psychoanalytic writing. If she marshalled her data, she could probably make a much more convincing case. I'm all for complicating things which have been oversimplified, but I was very disappointed with the route Walkerdine took in this book.
