Product description

Now she’s a superstar author, but once Jacqueline Wilson was just a shy schoolgirl who wrote all her daydreams down. Now she takes a frank and captivating look at her own childhood in this warm and moving autobiography. It’s a tale of friendships, loneliness, books, toys, family and much more. 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! This fascinating story of a favourite author’s childhood will inspire every Jacky fan to pick up their own pen and write!

    This book is really brilliant! It’s very interesting to see how Jacqueline Wilson’s childhood was like. I also was really intresed to see that some of the things in her books she has expirenced to for example her best friend’s mum has cancer just like Jayni’s mum in Lola Rose,also that she used to play with paper dolls when she was a child just like april in dustbin baby. I would definetly recommend that any mega fan of Jacqueline Wilson should read this book.

    Jacqueline Wilson is THE author to go to when looking for a good book for young girls although to be honest her old stuff is a lot more interesting and meaning compared to the new. classics such as Double act and Best of Friends and don’t forget the story of Tracy Beaker. This book is the story of her life.

    I love this jw book soooo much! Most of my friends werent sure about this book because it didn’t have a story plot but I loved it!! I thought it was a very interesting book because even though there wasn’t a story plot, you got to see what it was like to be Jacqueline Wilson when she was younger and what it was like living with her family and growing up. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes an autobiography. Well done jackie!!!!

    I adored Jacky Daydream, simply because I adore Jacqueline Wilson. I also loved the way it was an autobigoraphy but written for children, so ti wasn’t a bit tiresome and boring to read, but exciting and colourful, and most certainly enjoyable.

    I love it when she tells us that when he was born she was put in the nursery an d when the nurses came after every 4 hours she’d just think that was her mother. She also tells us that she shut eyes and imagined that her mother was holding her. She’s never open her eyes she was waiting 4 the day when her mother picks her up. She tells us that when her mum picks her up for the first time she says ” she’s just like i imagined” that makes her very happy.

    It was an okay book because you get to know loads of facts about Jacqueline Wilson (I’m a fan of hers), but it kind of starts to get a bit boring. Not really good, but i love her other books for definite! She’s my number one author!

    on 31 December 2009

    I have read this wonderful auto-biography, but some how I think I like fiction stories more.

    I like the themes, the reality and the ways Jacky had gone through in her marvellous life.

    I would rate it 10/10 if you liked auto-biographies and info, but for me I would rate it a positive 5/10.

    I have read this book and I thought it is a very well written and interesting book. It tells you lots about Jacqueline Wilson herself instead of her amazing and creative characters. In this auto-biography about her you find out about her teachers, schools, parents, outings, holidays and friends. Yet again Jacqueline Wilson has written another brilliant book that I would recomnend to anybody.

    The book was OK, but just not the type of book that I’d like to read – but maybe for someone else. I found that this book babbled a bit, and it was kind of in a messy order. Personally, I prefer her other books but this one was a OK book. I won’t say it’s rubbish, because it’s not, but after a while of reading it just bored me a little. But Jacqueline Wilson is a very good writer, to be honest ;) This by the way, is just my opinion. Some of you could really like this book.

    on 11 March 2008

    I think this book is really good not just because i love jacquelinwe wilson because it starts right at the beginning when she was born and to where she is now. It has 33 chapters and every chapter has its own subject. This would really be an excellent book for 6-12 year olds because i loved it when i was 8 and it wasn’t to hard for me

    thanks for reading this book review CHICKAWAWA p.s i would give this 5 stars but 4 stars for different readers

  97. booklover999

    jacky daydream is an excellent book about jacqueline wilson`s life when she was younger. it is like she is telling you the whole thing of stuff like what she did and where she went for holidays and all kinds of things. i have been so inspired by all of her books that i would someday like to become a famous writer but just now i am going to have to stick to writing stories on peices of paper and writing reviews. i hope you like her books too and enjoy them as much as i do .
