Project Runway meets Fame in a trendy new series from the authors of The Cupcake Club

At the Fashion Academy of Brooklyn, FAB is a way of life.

Fashion-forward MacKenzie "Mickey" Williams is thrilled to be accepted to FAB Middle School (Fashion Academy of Brooklyn), a school that serves as a training ground for the fashion designers of tomorrow. (Their motto, "We are SEW FAB"). But when her daring fashion and stellar grades turn the Fab A-listers green with envy, Mickey discovers that standing out doesn't always make it easy to fit in. So when friendly classmate JC comes up with a plan to help Mickey fit in, she decides to take the ultimate fashion risk-ditch her personal style for good.

One mega makeover later, pink-haired Mickey Williams mysteriously disappears, and the trendy, blonde "Kenzie Wills" shows up on the FAB scene, blending with the other students in a way Mickey never could. But when Mickey starts to lose herself to "Kenzie," she's not sure that fitting in is worth cutting herself down to size...

This dynamic mother-daughter writing duo cannot go awry! In this zesty first book of their new series, "Fashion Academy," MacKenzie dubbed Mickey is somewhat of an outsider - well, REALLY an outsider. If you don't sugarcoat it, people would say that her fashion sense is completely unconventional. But unconventionality makes her stand out, and Mickey is ecstatic when she is accepted into the Fashion Academy of Brooklyn! But when she has a begrudging mom, health-nut aunt, wacky best friend, insanely competitive enemy, and huge fashion competition coming up, Mickey realizes that the world of fashion is harder to make a name in than ever imagined.
