Middle-school students who enjoy fashion will appreciate
this new title in the Chloe By Design series. Written in an easy-to-comprehend manner, the
book introduces students to Chloe, a senior in high
school who loves fashion. From
accessories to clothes to the styling and design of everything, Chloe’s world
revolves around her love of fashion.
Chloe’s diary entry sets the scene for readers. As she prepares college
applications and gets her fashion portfolio ready, she’s been spending time
with
Nina, her former rival. Students will
cheer for Chloe as she maneuvers her way around the entire process,
from organizing college tours to creating various designs for her portfolio. Alex, Chloe’s best friend, is becoming
increasingly jealous of the time she spends with Nina. Worried about their friendship, Chloe
continues to tour colleges in both New York and Los Angeles, but she
thinks
about Alex. Inspired after a chat with a
fashion designer about her future and college choice, Chloe feels empowered to
make the best decision for her future.
The author includes colorful illustrations displaying fashion portfolio pages and biographical information on herself and the illustrator. As of this review, thirteen titles have been published in this new series, all featuring sixteen-year-old Chloe, who loves fashion. Titles feature clothes, accessories, styling, and designing. When a new reality television series for aspiring teenage designers is holding auditions in her town, she's desperate to win a spot on the show. Chloe will need to survive the competition and shine like a star. The book would make a good addition to a middle-school collection for casual reading.
