Mother & Daughter Team Sheryl Berk & Carrie Berk Appear on the GingerNewYork TV Show - NYC

NEW YORK - Jan. 30, 2016 - PRLog -- Sheryl Berk: has written about fashion for more than 20 years, first as a contributor to InStyle magazine, and later as the founding editor in chief of Life & Style Weekly. She has written dozens of books with celebrities including Britney Spears, Jenna Ushkowitz, Whitney Port, and Zendaya—and the #1 New York Times bestseller (turned movie) Soul Surfer with Bethany Hamilton.

Her daughter, Carrie Berk, is a renowned cupcake connoisseur and blogger with over 105,000 followers at the tender age of 13!  The mother-daughter writing team created the successful Cupcake Club books beginning with Peace, Love, and Cupcakes. The books have sold upward of 300,000 copies around the world and was recently made into an off-Broadway musical, Peace, Love, and Cupcakes at Vital Theatre in New York City. https://www.facebook.com/PLCCupcakeClub

Recently the mother-daughter writing team graduated from cupcakes to fashion with the new book series: Fashion Academy. Project Runway meets the tween scene in this fresh and fun series. Carrie Berk dreamed up the idea of Fashion Academy book series about a fashion school for young designers when she was in fifth grade. Like many girls her age, Carrie has developed a great interest in fashion, but being the go-getter that she is, she’s already jumped headfirst into the fashion world—attending New York Fashion Week while interviewing esteemed designers like Zara Terez and Isaac Mizrahi and fashion blogger Bethany Mota. She chronicles her fashion adventures on her new style blog: www.fashionacademybook.com. Carrie Berk has outfitted many American Girl dolls in original fashions.

In Fashion Academy, MacKenzie “Mickey” Williams is the new student at FAB Middle School (Fashion Academy of Brooklyn), a training ground for the fashion designers of tomorrow. But Mickey’s unorthodox style, multicolored hair, and mismatched shoes make her a “walking fashion don’t.”

When Mickey proves herself to be a star pupil, her classmates want even less to do with her. So, in order to fit in, Mickey decides it’s time for a major makeover. The new, trendy “Kenzie” is able to blend in like a true fashionista. The next book in the series, "Runway Ready" will be released in early 2016.
