In Legends from Mom’s Closet, 10-year-old Sasha Olsen documents how she
spent a rainy summer indoors using her creativity and imagination. After

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.
