Jacqueline Wilson
Jacky Daydream
Everybody knows Tracy Beaker, Jacqueline Wilson's best-loved character. But what do they know about Jacqueline Wilson herself? In this fascinating book discover how she played with paper dolls like April in Dustbin Baby; how she dealt with an
unpredictable father like Prue in Love Lessons; how she sat entrance exams like Ruby in Double Act. But most of all how Jacqueline loved reading and writing
stories. Losing herself in a new world was the best possible way she could think of spending her time.
In Jacky Daydream, Jacqueline Wilson takes a look back at her own childhood in this captivating story of friendships, loneliness, books, toys, parents and much more. She explores her early years with the same warmth and lightness of touch that imbues her novels, and covers such difficult issues as her parents' extra-marital affairs with delicacy.
Jacky Daydream is also available on cassette and in Galaxy Large Print, with photographs and new illustrations by Nick Sharratt.
