Along Came Coco: A Story about Coco Chanel<\/a>
\nby Eva Byrne (Author \/ Illustrator)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> 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 wasn\u2019t 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 wouldn\u2019t have to be so fussy–girls needed time for other things, and they needed some of the comforts that boys enjoyed. Why shouldn\u2019t girls have pockets? And why did they have to wear corsets all the time?<\/p>\n
