The Maddie Diaries

I want people to know the real me – the silly stuff, the serious stuff, and everything in between …

Maddie Ziegler always hoped to become a star – she just didn’t know how soon that day would come. At just eight years of age, she was cast on Dance Moms, catching the eye of pop superstar Sia. The rest, as they say, is history.

In this uplifting memoir, Maddie has chronicled every minute of her exciting ride so fans can experience it with her. She explains the hard work she put into her rise to stardom and how she kept her balance along the way. With honesty, charm and humour, Maddie shares the hilarious behind-the-scenes stories we don’t see on TV, the real-life friendships that mean the most to her, and the struggles that she has overcome. Besides offering tips and advice on everything from style and beauty to friendship and crushes, Maddie wants to inspire readers to follow their passions as well.

Everyone has a talent and a gift; everyone can make an impact. We are the future, and there is nothing that we can’t do if we put our minds to it.
