Cheryl Diamond is 14, she wants to become
a model. Shes pretty enough, actually, shes a little to pretty for some
model agencies. She gets turned away because shes just a little to
young, not enough experienced, and a little bit to short. However, when
she comes to one certain agency, they love her. No matter that shes a
few inches to short, she'll grow eventually. Everything is going
wonderfully for her with this agency, they are treating her perfectly,
they love her, she likes them. However, soon there agency has to close
and shes back at square one. Cheryl waits until shes older, 16, and
starts trying to find an agency again. She signs with one, and finds
how much unfriendly they are compared to her former agency. Cheryl is
rising to the top, and getting there faster than most. Her life is
going good, until she signs with to do a fashion show, and a terrible
thing happens to her and her job is ruined for the time. Will she be
able to rise back to the top? Will she have to give up her modeling
forever? Will her beauty ever be as it used to?

I loved this
book. It is all true, and Cheryl has a extremely good writing style.
Her writing makes you feel like you are right there with her. Her story
is inspiring and teaches a lesson - reach for your dreams and never
give up. This book isn't "clique" like you might think, since Cheryl is
a lot more realistic than that. This book was wonderful! I hope you
enjoy it as much as I did!
