Mackenzie Ziegler Announces She is Writing a Book

Watch out, Maddie Ziegler — you’re not the only Ziegler kid with some writing props.

Mackenzie Ziegler, at only 12 years old, is going to be following in her big sister’s footsteps and writing a book of her own. It will be titled Mackenzie’s Rules for Life: How to be Happy, Healthy, and Dance to Your Own Beat, and it’s debuting in summer of 2018 from Gallery Books.

What will the book be about? In a large part, Mackenzie‘s journey.

It will be an “inspirational, upbeat advice book for young girls navigating their tween years,” and will cover everything from her experiences with friendship and family to fitness and boys.

“Growing up and trying to find your way in this world can be tough,” she told Teen Vogue, “I am still figuring it out myself. I feel like it will really help kids with how to be more confident with themselves.”

Mackenzie is definitely someone to turn to for help with confidence; her new single, “Monsters (aka Haters)” (watch the video) is all about empowerment and having faith in yourself.

Not bad for a 12-year-old. We can’t wait to see what she does next!
