''Modelland'' <ref>pronounced exactly how it looks</ref> is the first in a planned trilogy of [[Young Adult]] novels written by former supermodel and ''[[America's Next Top Model]]'' host [[Tyra Banks]]. One of the few celebrity book projects that (according to [[Word of God]]) doesn't have a ghost writer involved. It is a cross between ''[[The Hunger Games]]'', ''[[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]]'', and ''[[America's Next Top Model]]''. |

Tookie De La Crème isn't what you would call a conventional beauty: Her forehead is big, her hair is ratty, her body is gawky, and her eyes are [[Mismatched Eyes|two different colors]]. So naturally, she didn't expect to be picked to attend Modelland, an exclusive school on top of the [[World Tree|world mountain]] where the magical Intoxibellas, women who are a cross between a modern day supermodel and a sorcerer, are trained. It's an opportunity that every other girl in the world would kill for, and somehow, she and three other awkward looking girls have ended up there. |
