<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Zoey does her best to do it all--but this time her fashion plate might be too full! Includes "Sew Zoey" blog posts and fashion illustrations.</b> <p/>Zoey Webber would do--and sew--anything for her friends, so she jumps at the chance to make very special outfits for their very special events. Priti asks Zoey to make a modern sari to wear to her cousin's Indian wedding, and Kate asks for a dress for her State Championships awards dinner. Zoey is sewing up a storm, while also launching an online store with another sewing blogger! Then a string of surprises and setbacks makes a mess of her plans, and Zoey gets really ruffled. When the sewing gets tough, can Zoey keep going?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>An aspiring fashion designer is the affable heroine of this first book in the Sew Zoey series. . . . In a smoothly written story of overcoming challenges with ingenuity and style, Taylor shows a knack for characterization and dialogue, and her detailed descriptions of Zoey's designs will entice young fashionistas.-- "Publishers Weekly"<br><br>Most novels about fashion end up being more about little divas than about the clothing; this is an exception. This story celebrates the rewards of personal creativity and risks of self-expression. . . . This book will appeal to a middle-grade crowd that isn't into vampires and dystopias, as well as to those who create art with their hands.-- "Kirkus Reviews"<br><br>The characters are enjoyable and well developed, and the plot is humorous and entertaining. The black-and-white drawings that open each chapter add a bit of fashion flair. With a touching ending that will leave readers with a warm, fuzzy feeling, this novel will appeal to young fashionistas.-- "School Library Journal"<br><br>Zoey Webber is a funky fashionista stuck in a gray-polyester-uniform world. The first book in a delightful new series, this will appeal to any girl finding her own style. Zoey is a bubbly and vivacious character who doesn't let insecurities take command.-- "Booklist"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Chloe Taylor learned to sew when she was a little girl. She loved watching her Grandmother Louise turn a scrap of blue fabric into a simple-but-fabulous dress, nightgown, or even a bathing suit in an instant. It was magical!

Chloe has written more than thirty books for children and lives, writes, and window shops in New York City. <p/>Nancy Zhang is an illustrator and an art and fashion lover with a passion for all beautiful things.
