Nonie, Edie and Jenny are three best friends who are living in London. Nonie's talent is fashion, Edie's is a girl who wants to save the world, and Jenny is a teen actress who is starring in the Hollywood movie Kid Zone.Then Nonie and Edie meet Crow. A twelve year old girl who is a refugee from Uganda and who dresses funny with fairy wings. Crow designs the most beautiful flower petal dresses and she is trained by her neighbour, an elderly lady who was once a seamstress for Dior. Crow's designs are sold out every time at the Portobello Road market in Notting Hill, where the clients are mostly top models. Crow starts to design more than flower petal dresses because she gets more and more design requests.
Edie and Nonie are getting to know more about the past of Crow in Uganda and they want to help her, but most of all they want her to get her own fashion show..
Recently Threads caught my eye in a bookstore, the cover is just gorgeous, and the book is even more than that. It is a fun book in every way, and every girl who loves fashion will fall in love with Threads. Crow is just an amazing girl to read about and I am really curious how her designs would look in real life. Its a modern fairy tale about fashion and its just real fun to read. I am already looking out for the sequel..
