First Day of 4th grade!

My mom goes a little crazy with the first day of school. I think it's because she is so ready to get rid of us and back to her reading schedule. Every year we have to stand out side next to a blank wall so she can ask us questions and put them on the pictures. I think I rock my look going into fourth grade. I've discovered designer clothes and there is no going back. Mom said I need to find a job.  Hope everyone has a great first day of school! #Wolfpack #Woodard #FourthGradeRocks

Here are the pictures from the past school years.

BOOK REVIEW: The Fashion Academy by Sheryl Berk and Carrie Berk

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…

I really really really liked this book Mickey is a lot like me. My mom hates it when I get a new Barbie and the first thing I do it take off all of her clothes and start making my own clothes for them. I love to use play doh and tissue paper. I have also used sharpies, which really makes my mom mad.

Mickey has always loved fashion. The kids in her school didn't get why she loved fashion so much and so she really didn't have a lot of friends who got her.

Mickey goes behind her mom's back and applied to the Fashion Academy of Brooklyn Middle school in New York City. She has always wanted to be a fashion designer and so she really wants to go to the FAB. But she

lives in Philadelphia and so if she gets in, she will have to go live with her not so nice aunt.

Mickey gets in and she is so excited but she has a hard time fitting in. Everyone is so different than her and so she decides to become somebody else with the help of her friend Javen Cumberland. Just because she pretends to be someone else, Mickey has a hard time with not being her true self.

I really liked this book and I hope there will be more books at the Fashion Academy of Brooklyn.
