Over the last 20 years, Jacqueline Wilson has published well over
100 titles and has become firmly established in the landscape of
Children's Literature. She has written for all ages, from picture
books for young readers to young adult fiction and tackles a wide
variety of controversial topics, such as child abuse, mental
illness and bereavement. Although she has received some criticism
for presenting difficult and seemingly 'adult' topics to children,
she remains overwhelmingly popular among her audience and has won
numerous prizes selected by children, such as the Smarties Book
Prize. This collection of newly commissioned essays explores
Wilson's literature from all angles. The essays cover not only the
content and themes of Wilson's writing, but also her success as a
publishing phenomenon and the branding of her books. Issues of
gender roles and child/carer relationships are examined alongside
Wilson's writing style and use of techniques such as the unreliable
narrator. The book also features an interview with Jacqueline
Wilson herself, where she discusses the challenges of writing
social realism for young readers and how her writing has changed
over her lengthy career.
