And we had to hold the knife to cut the cake together. Which meant we only had half a wish each. Wishing is for babies anyway. They don't come true. I was born at some hospital some where. I looked cute when I was a little baby but I bet I yelled a lot. I am cms tall. I've tried measuring with a ruler but it keeps wobbling about and I can't reach properly. I don't want to get any of the other children to help me. This is my private book. I weigh? Jenny has got scales in her bathroom but they're stones and pounds.
I don't weigh many of them. I'm a little titch. My eyes are black and I can make them go all wicked and witchy. I quite fancy being a witch. I'd make up all these incredibly evil spells and wave my wand and ZAP Louise's golden curls would all fall out and ZAP Peter lngham's silly squeaky voice would get sillier and squeakier and he'd grow whiskers and a long tail and ZAP.
My hair is fair and very long and curly. I am telling fibs. It's dark and difficult and it sticks up in all the wrong places. My lucky number is 7. So why didn't I get fostered by some fantastic rich family when I was seven then?
My best friend is Well, I've had heaps and heaps, but Louise has gone off with Justine and now I haven't got anyone just at the moment. I like eating everything. I like birthday cake best. And any other kind of cake. And Smarties and Mars Bars and big buckets of popcorn and jelly spiders and Cornettos and Big Macs with French fries and strawberry milk shakes. My favourite game is playing with make-up. Louise and I once borrowed some from Adele who's got heaps.
Louise was a bit boring andjust tried to make herself look beautiful. In the past, she has opened up on her experience of growing up while playing Tracy, saying: "Yeah, I was 12 when I started playing Tracy and I'm 22 now, so it has been a while! And my hair is a lot less curly! I guess sometimes when we were growing up we were going through the same things at the same time — but hopefully handling it differently!
Dani Harmer children: Does Tracey Beaker star have children? I think she had the best motives for what she did, and she still does, and that's what makes kids really identify with her. While appearing, on a Celebrity special of The Chase last year, Dani spoke candidly on how her role as Tracy has become a big part of her life.
One day Cam visits the home, to write a piece on the children. Tracy, being something of a writer herself, resolves to help out. The two form a bond and Tracy begins to wonder if Cam might represent a way out of the home for good. Tracy's story is told as a series of diary entries, liberally illustrated with doodles and drawings from the pen of Nick Sharratt.
She is an endearing narrator and her bouts of temper serve only to make her seem more believable. Both funny and touching by turns, it is easy to see why Tracy's story has become a modern-day classic. Children's Laureate Jacqueline Wilson was born in Bath in , and spent her childhood in Kingston-on-Thames, Surrey, where she still lives today.
She started her writing career as a teenage journalist with D. Thompson, writing for the teenage magazine Jackie which was named after her. Today her popular books for children have sold millions of copies and have been translated into more than thirty languages. As the fourth Children's Laureate she promoted the importance of sharing books, and reading aloud together.
Nick liked drawing from an early age. That's when I decided I was going to be a professional artist one day! I nearly always drew in felt tip pens then, and I liked drawing big crowd scenes. I'd start in the bottom left-hand corner of the paper and just let the picture grow, telling myself stories about each of the characters in turn as I drew them.
Here are ten books in which words and pictures work really well together. The list reflects the fact that books with pictures are not just for the very young; some will appeal to oler readers and even teenagers.
Here's a list of some of our favourite stories with inspiring heroines for older girls and young teens. Check out our favourite kid's TV shows based on children's books. She was cast as Tracy Beaker at the age of 12 in , a role she held for five years and reprised in a number of spin-offs and Tracy Beaker's Movie of Me.
Dani's partner is named Simon Brough, and the couple live together with their daughter. A post shared by Dani Harmer missdanijharmer.
