Meet the real Maddie
The little dog behind the big adventures.
Maddie is a tiny Yorkshire Terrier from Florida with a larger-than-life personality and the happiest tail on earth. Her real-life adventures, funny habits, and joyful spirit inspired Terri-Anne Crawford to create the Maddie children’s book series.
When she isn’t starring in books, Maddie can usually be found charming new friends, keeping an eye on her sometimes-grumpy big brother Maxwell, or convincing Mom that she deserves another piece of freeze-dried chicken.
