What's inside Aunt Jo's treasure chest? That's what Ava wants to know. Then, one night, Aunt Jo hands her the key...and the two take a magical journey back in time to visit three daring, gifted, and visionary Black fashion designers: Elizabeth Keckley, a former slave who became one of the most celebrated designers of her time and personal friend of Mary Todd Lincoln; Ann Cole Lowe, a designer for Jackie Kennedy; and Mildred Blount, milliner to the stars! The bold achievements of these inspiring women of history are celebrated in this fashion fairy tale that spotlights iconic style moments...and sparks a child's imagination.
