Summary:
Over the summer, fashion-loving Zoey Webber gets the best news ever: Her middle school is getting rid of uniforms! There's just one problem. Zoey has sketchbooks full of fashion designs, but nothing to wear! So with a little help from her best friends Kate and Priti, she learns to make her own clothes. She even begins to post her fashion design sketches online in a blog. That's how the Sew Zoey blog begins, and soon it becomes much more. Zoey's quirky style makes her a bit of a misfit at middle school, but her Sew Zoey blog quickly gains a dedicated following. Real fashion designers start to read it! Yet even as her blog takes off, Zoey still has to deal with homework, crushes, and P.E. class. And when the principal asks her to design a dress for the school's fashion-show fund-raiser, Zoey can't wait to start sewing! But what will happen when her two worlds collide?
Excerpt/First Sentence(s):
Thud!
Zoey Webber heard the glamorous thump of glossy paper meeting floorboards, and raced down the hall to the front door to get the mail. Only one thing could make that sound: the newest issue of Tres Chic arriving through the mail slot.
Yes!
She scooped it up along with some envelopes and interior design magazines and put everything but Tres Chic on a table for her aunt. Then she scanned the cover to see what was tres chic for July:
The Long (Dresses) and Short (Shorts) of Summer Style Dots Are Hot! 25 Fresh Fashion Faces to Watch Be Inspired . . . by BOLD Colors!
Zoey grinned at the last headline. Oh, she was inspired.
