The Story of Tracy Beaker with Laura Dockrill

Laura Dockrill joins me to talk about the iconic Tracy Beaker. Laura is the author of books for all ages from picture books to poetry including her memoir What Have I Done?, the Darcy Burdock series for young readers and her new non-fiction book about creativity, You Are a Story. We talk about why Jacqueline Wilson is as good as the Spice Girls, how we find essences of our littler selves when we revisit childhood books as well as sharing some embarrassing tween memories. 

You can find out more about Laura's books, and the books we discuss in the episode here: https://uk.bookshop.org/lists/bookwandering-the-podcast

The last episode of series one of Bookwandering will be out next Wednesday, and we'll be back for series two later in the summer. The podcast is produced by Adam Collier with artwork by Hester Kitchen.
