Early life

• She was born in bath 1945, but spent most of her
  childhood in Kingston-on-Thames. Jacqueline never
  got a lot as a child so she had to use her
  imagination a lot of the time to make up little
  games so that she could have fun!

Jackie daydream!

• She always wanted to be a writer and wrote her
  first novel when she was nine, filling in
  countless Woolworth's exercise books as she grew
  up. As she matured she decided to write her own
  biography which was called Jackie daydream
  because when she was in school thats what all
  her teachers called her as she was forever in a
  daydream!

  always having to make choices about new books for

  job tbh!

Resourceful

  has been very creative making up her own story

I am very good at reasoning because I like to
know the purpose of why I am doing something
before I will do it, Jacqueline has to stop and
think before she starts to write her books. I am
also very good at being responsible for my
actions, and if Jacqueline Wilson makes a mistake
then she would be able to apologise and make up
for it.
