Catwalk: Strike a Pose is Today's Featured Book of Color. This book is written by Deborah Gregory, author of the bestselling series The Cheetah Girls. Pashmina Purrstein and her fashion friends, Angora, Felinez, and Aphro, are all hard at work as a team of fashionistas in order to win the Big Willie trophy in the Catwalk Competition.
By late November, everyone at Fashion International High School has joined the competition to win the chance to stage their show at the Pitti Bimbo Collections in Firenze, Italy. And, everything will be documented by the Teen Style Network for the reality show "Catwalk:Strike a Pose." Under all this pressure, Pashmina and her friends discover if they can hack it or not.
And you're sure that's not from the
Onion
?
Right? It's a "Book of Color" with a character named APHRO?!?
It makes killer unicorns sound appealing. (Comparatively speaking, of course.)
Fashion International High School? Pitti Bimbo Collection?
It's definitely not from the Onion. I swear. Even better, it's a series!

I'm pretty sure "The Cheetah Girls" have been made into a movie or a TV series or something.
Yup. [link]
Apparently Disney created a band based on the series of novels and then created movies around the band. Umm, I guess I'm not helping....
A neighbor just recced this to me and I'm wondering if anyone's read it.
Mieville's been on my TBR list forever and I've just never gotten around to him. This one sounds really intriguing, though.
Jessica, that is one of the books I'm reading now, and I am enjoying it.
