Legends
from Mom’s Closet by Sasha Olsen documents how she spent a rainy summer indoors
using her creativity and imagination. After reading a stack of books about
women like Frida Kahlo, Audrey Hepburn and Billie Holiday, Sasha’s imagination
ran wild and she ended up in her mom's closet picking through her clothes and
her grandmother’s vintage pieces to dress up like all the female legends she
had been reading about.
Complete with photos of the looks she created and tips
for other young girls on how they, too, can emulate these iconic women, Legends
from Mom’s Closet will inspire readers to delve into the lives of truly
remarkable women from the past to learn a thing or two about what it means to
be legendary in today’s world.
This book inspires kids to dress up and play
outdoors using their imagination and try something fun like outdoor forts,
playing tea, vintage dress up, and so much more. I know when I was a kid I
played outdoors a lot and made my own branch teepee, made mud pies, pretended I
had a kitchen and make things with berries, milkweed and more.
