Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Madeleine. Madeleine LOVED to tell stories because she believed EVERYONE has a story and that story deserves to be told.

That little girl grew up to become a Very Ambitious Performer on stage, film and TV, and now, she is Virtually an Author Person. FACT!

Madeleine also has six kids, and she believes it is very important for children to experience what it is like to walk in someone else’s shoes. Why? Because the greatest gift we can give is treating others with respect and kindness, no matter who they are, what they do or where they come from.

So Madeleine has created Lily D, V.A.P., a character actor with a difference, and hopes that you have enjoyed reading about her in the book.

Madeleine can also do backflips with just the occasional injury, and dreams of one day owning a chocolate-coated castle made entirely of peanut butter … or Nutella even. Madeleine isn’t fussy.
