This is the engrossing, entertaining true story of a dreamy little girl who grew up to be a mega-bestselling writer, read by Jacqueline Wilson herself. Everybody knows Tracy Beaker, Jacqueline Wilson's best-loved character. But what do they know about Jacqueline herself? In this fascinating book, discover how Jacky played with paper dolls like April in "Dustbin Baby"; how she dealt with an unpredictable father like Prue in "Love Lessons"; and, how she sat entrance exams like Ruby in "Double Act". But most of all how Jacky loved reading and writing stories. From the very first story she wrote, it was clear that this little girl had a very vivid imagination. But who would've guessed that she would grow up to be the mega-bestselling, award-winning Jacqueline Wilson! 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 she shows in her novels, and sensitively covers difficult topics like her parents' extra-marital affairs.
