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"; how she sat entrance exams like Ruby in "Double Act". I Have only read one of her other books, but I think I can still say that this book is very true to her fictional style. And in JW's case her childhood really is the most relevant part of her life, since that's where she gets her inspiration for her books. For me though this was a little bit slow, I wanted so much more information about her life and was just given little snippets which is great for children but not if you're genuinely interested and want to see what her childhood was like. Read it to see how Jacky played with paper dolls like April in Dustbin Baby; how she sat entrance exams like Ruby in Double Act, and how – just like Tracy Beaker – she loved writing and making up stories!

Jacqueline Wilson takes a look back at her own childhood in this captivating story of friendships, loneliness, books, toys, parents and much more. Therefore I would definitely say be wary going into this book, it is short and you can probably get through it quite quickly however it may just miss the mark for some of us who are probably a little older than the intended demographic. In 2007 Jacky Daydream was published, an inspirational true story of how a shy schoolgirl became a superstar author.
