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.

Something has happened which shouldn't be possible. A star was stolen. One minute it was there, the next it was gone. And Sara Hale, a mechanically augmented rocket officer, has the unenviable task of discovering how such a devastating phenomenon is possible - and who's to blame. Entangled somewhere in this mess is Sara's young friend, David Smith, a legendary war hero with amorous ties to their quarry. David has been tramping from star system to star system since the Yavi War ended, and he's earned a reputation for being unpredictable and utterly unstoppable. But he's fiercely loyal to Sara - or at least he always has been. Neither of them want to think about what might happen on the day their goals fail to align. Peeling back the mystery plunges Sara and her comrades down a bloody trail left by a rogue assassin, each step of which seems just a little too easy to follow. What will they find when they reach the end? What secrets lie at the Spark? And do they bode well or ill for humanity? The future of our species, indeed of all the galaxy, may soon depend upon the crew of a Rocket to the Spark!
