| book description |

In a time when children were meant to be seen and not heard, along came Coco, a small French orphan with an eye for style, a talent for sewing, and a big imagination. Coco grew up in an orphanage run by very strict nuns, but she wasnâ€™t very good at following rules. At a time when girls were told to brush their hair 100 times until their arms were sore, Coco promised herself that one day she would snip away her locks so that she wouldnâ€™t have to be so fussyâ€”girls needed time for other things, and they needed some of the comforts that boys enjoyed. Why shouldnâ€™t girls have pockets? And why did they have to wear corsets all the time? An exploration of Cocoâ€™s early life and a celebration of her creativity,Â Along Came Coco ?shows the ways in which Coco Chanelâ€™s imaginative spirit led her to grow into one of the worldâ€™s most beloved fashion icons.Â Â
