The hilarious and heartwarming adventures of Mia Megastar continue in this third instalment.

Hi, I'm Mia! Since my drama group put on our epic play, the spotlight is on me. I thought I wanted to be a big star, but . . . do I really?

YES!

  • Mum and Dad's shop is busier than ever.
  • Everyone thinks I'm good enough to be a REAL actor.
  • The Stage Stars are filming a scary movie and it's SO much fun!
  • Maybe I'll get to audition for my favourite TV show.

NO!

  • Mum and Dad are busier than ever.
  • Everyone keeps staring at me - it's making me cringe.
  • The Stage Stars are my best friends. I don't want things to change.
  • What if I audition . . . and don't get the part?

Luckily, I have my awesome friends and family to help me decide.

Ada has also used her large following to promote and raise awareness for various charities she feels passionately about, including The Good Friday Appeal and Breast Screen Australia.
