Girl on Pointe: Chloe's Guide to Taking on the World

Chloe Lukasiak believes that things happen for a reason. She knows that life would be easier without disappointments, bullying, and medical issues, but sometimes it takes challenges to inspire you to achieve big things. "On these pages, you will find: the story of how I ended up on Dance Moms ... and then off the show ... and then back on; lots of advice, straight from the heart; some photographs that only my closes friends have ever seen poems and short stories from my top-secret journal; and a few other surprises, too!
