AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Coco is the memoir of a Kings Cross chihuahua who is also a model, and actress, who most recently starred in ABC TV series, The Straits. She lives in Sydney with a writer who answers to the name Mandy Sayer. Three years ago, a man tried to have Coco evicted from her building. Mandy wrote about it in the local paper, The Wentworth Courier, and the response from the public was so overwhelming, that Coco persuaded Mandy to write her entire story, from the time she was born to the present day. Even though she is a model and an actress, Coco experiences the same problems as do most young single females who live in the city: trying to find Mr Right and, when she does, how to quiet her ticking biological clock. (She adopts a son, Basil!) Source: www.fivemile.com.au/ (Sighted 18/09/2012).
