| Publisher Description: Inspired by her sister Evie's favorite show, Finley decides to become a fashion designer. She creates Fin-tastic Fashions and starts making samples for her friends to model. The orders come pouring in, but just as the fad is taking off, Finley's mom finds out that Finley has been using the family's forks in the name of fashion. Not wanting to disappoint her first fashion fans, Finley wracks her brain trying to come up with another necessary accessory. While eating lunch in the cafeteria, Finley is inspired to tweak her original concept, creating a new fashion fad with a mission. |
Contributor Bio(s): Secheret, Jessica: - Jessica was born on a spring day in 1978 in a small French town. When she was very young she had strange buddies that were always with her: felt pens, colored pencils, brushes and paint. After several years spent in various agencies of architecture, she decided to give up squares, rulers, and compasses and put her body, heart, and soul into what she always loved--putting her own imagination on paper. She's currently residing at her studio in Paris, drawing for magazines and children's books in France and abroad.Young, Jessica: - Jessica Young's award-winning picture book My Blue is Happy (2013) was included on the 2014 Bank Street College of Education's Best Books of the Year for Children and Young Adults list and the Texas Library Association's 2014 "2 x 2 Reading List," and was chosen to represent Tennessee on the Library of Congress/Center for the Book's 2013 "52 Great Reads" list.
