Mini Bibliography
Jacqueline Wilson was born on the 17th of December 1945
in Bath, England but grew up in Kingston. When she was seven years old she was an imaginative child who enjoyed both reading and inventing stories. She was never a fan of mathematics and always stared out the window thinking of ideas for new stories. Her imagination has helped her to sell over 30 million of her books. Four of her books have made the top 100 most popular books in Britain. She is also famous for her series of Tracy Beaker. She writes novels for all ages and has a excellent humour in her writing.
The best part of her books are always the ending. She would always make sure you can find a way out of everything. "I try to have reasonably happy endings because I would hate any child to be cast down in gloom and despair; I want to show them you can find a way out of it"

My favourite book that I have read by Jacqueline Wilson is called Cliff Hanger. Its about a boy who hates sports but his parents force him to go on a adventure camp. He is terrible at sports and everybody teases him but in the end he become a hero. If you want to find out more then she should read the book. This is my favourite author and I hope one day she'll be yours as well.
