Its a big big world Its easy to get lost in it... —Justin Bieber Up I love those lines in the lyrics. Sometimes I feel like thats what everyones expecting. My world got very big very fast and a lot of people expect me to get lost in it. I grew up in a small town in Canada. I taught myself to sing in front of my bedroom mirror and to play guitar on a hand-me-down. My mom posted my first videos on YouTube. Never in my wildest dreams did I think that Id sell millions of records sing for the president of the United States and sell out a massive arena tour. So no Im not lost. Not at all. If anything onstage in front of my fans Im home. Im found. And thats what this book is about: my journey from singing and busking on the sidewalk in Stratford Ontario to performing and showing my appreciation to millions of fans all over the world for making this dream a reality. My music and lyrics give a glimpse of whats in my heart but I think this book is a window into my world. In here are hundreds of pictures of me that no ones ever seen before and Ill tell you about who I was before I joined forces with Scooter Braun and Usher and got a record deal and who Ive become since Ive been blessed with the opportunity to share my music with the world. This is my gift to you the fans whove supported and been with me on this amazing journey every step of the way.
