Wilson was still at school and only nine years old
when she wrote her first book-length story, filling
page after page of notebooks bought from Woolworth's!
At the age of 17 years she had her first short story
published and since then she has written over 70
books, sold over 20 million copies in the UK alone
and won many prizes and awards. She is the current
Children's Laureate. |

These
are just some of her books:
The Story of Tracy Beaker
The Illustrated Mum
The Suitcase Kid
Cliffhanger
Secrets
Bad Girls
Double Act
Lola Rose
Vicky Angel
Girls Under Pressure
Girls Out Late
Jacqueline likes writing about families - with all
their ups and downs - and usually from the point
of view of the children who live in them. Growing
up and friendship are also important themes in her
stories.
When she is not busy writing she enjoys reading
(she has over 15,000 books at home), watching films,
swimming, dancing, shopping and visiting art galleries.
