If you're anything like us, you were monumentally crushed to learn that the awesomely snarky celebrity kid blog Suri's Burn Book is not, in fact, penned by Tom and Katie's precocious six- year-old.

In reality, 25-year-old Allie Hagan is behind the popular Tumblr which is self described as "a study in Suri and the people who disappoint her." Popular targets are Harper Beckham, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt and Willow Smith, but Hagan assures that, although biting, the humor is "all in good fun."

Initially conceived as a celebrity baby blog, the site evolved into Suri's Burn Book when Allie began to fear a full grown adult's critical musings of famous kids' star style might come across a bit mean-spirited.

"I am a 25-year-old...I thought if I was going to be …a little bit jokey…it would come across as kind of... unnecessary and possibly, a little bit creepy, so instead I decided to write it in the voice of Suri Cruise."

So what attracted Allie to TomKat's pint-sized fashionista as the perfect personality to channel for her blog?

"[Suri] obviously holds herself and her fashion to a very high standard," she explains. "I knew that she was the one who could pass a little judgment on the others."

And as it turns out, the choice was a good one! After only a year online, Allie already scored a publisher to bring her website's six-year-old's musings to paperback. Titled Suri's Burn Book: Well-Dressed Commentary From Hollywood's Little Sweetheart, the collection will hit shelves this fall.
