A delightful duo of ``changing picture'' books, these sturdy, paper-over-board selections will more than hold up to the repeated readings that their diverting scenarios will insure. In the first Continue reading » Feeling like she doesn't measure up to her "drop-dead gorgeous" friends, Ellie tries to take control of her weight, and ends up battling bulimia, in this follow-up to Continue reading » Absolutely amazing book. I've read Jaqueline Wilson as the first proper books I was able to read. Every time I enter the school library I go straight to the J section to see the books. This was the saddest yet (apart from The Longest Wale Song) And absolutely beautiful!!!!! I loved it!!!!!

Our mission is to foster a universal passion for reading by partnering with authors to help create stories and communicate ideas that inform, entertain, and inspire. Jacqueline is one of the nation’s favourite authors, and her books are loved and cherished by young readers not only in the UK but all over the world. She has sold millions of books and in the UK alone the total now stands at over 35 million! But eventually there comes a time, usually about the time children are leaving primary school, when they have either read all the books or - dreadful as it is to say it - very slightly outgrown their beloved author. So what can they try next?A far cry from traditional middle-grade fiction, this British import is an eye-opening but long-winded account of life in a dingy shelter hotel. Elsa, an aspiring performer who sprinkles her Continue reading » Or for teenagers who enjoyed Tracy Beaker and the real life issues in Jacqueline Wilson's books, head to Alex Wheatle's perfect Crongton series: Liccle Bit, Crongton Knightsand Straight Outta Crongton. Your suggestions I didn't get a chance to explain I was being sly, not shy. I tried not to mind too much. Even Dame Judi Dench would find it hard to get a special cheer if she had to play a stoat. Kate Maryon's books 'cover similarly challenging themes to Jacqueline Wilson's books in a wise and kindly manner', suggested @alibrarylady (describing the stories as 'very readable' and appropriate for readers aged 9+).

Below is just a selection of your recommendations... Authors named Cathy, Cath, Cat and Cas A very interesting take on darker topics, this is an interesting way to explain to people how to deal with the death of a close friend or family member.Right!" She looks up at all the notices for clubs. "OK, OK. I'll go to the dopey old Drama Club with you if ... you'll join the Fun Run Friday Club with me." Whilst perhaps not entirely realistic, this book shines a light on how a pre teen handles the death of another young person and the associating issues of the people who are left behind. Less so now, but children aren't much involved in deaths. There are many stories of children growing up on the 60s through to the 80s and even the 90s where they aren't even told someone is dead-particularly a parent-and aren't taken to the funeral. And then they aren't told "properly" and they aren't really involved in any kind of conversation. Thankfully these days we aren't so afraid of conversation as we once were, and this book was probably a pre-cursor to that shift in dealing with death and children. Renowned Latin American writer Alvarez has created another story about cultural identity, but this time the primary character is 11-year-old Miguel Guzmán. My favourite characters were Jade, because I empathized with her throughout and I was interested in her personality. I also liked Sam, because I thought that he was so kind and the perfect kind of friend for Jade.

We know it's so easy to get attached to a favourite author, and when their books are as good as Jacqueline Wilson's, it's no surprise that some children feel like they'll never find anything they love as much. But we've got some recommendations about great stories they can try next - and we want to hear your ideas too! If you're hooked on Jacqueline Wilson, it makes sense to try out the books Jacqueline herselfloved! That's the approach that @storyvilledtook, explaining that her "JW fan" read (and "loved") Ballet Shoesafter finding out it was one of Jacqueline's favourites.So sad! BTW my version of the book has a comment right at the beginning from Jacqueline Wilson. She says: When Andy's parents get divorced, she finds herself spending alternate weeks at Mom's house, then at Dad's, and longs for the days when they were all at home together. Ages 9-12.
