Jenny Valentine studied English literature at Goldsmiths College, which almost put her off reading, but not quite. Her debut novel, Me, the Missing, and the Dead, was a Morris Award finalist in America and won the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize in the United Kingdom under the title Finding Violet Park. Fire Color One, Jenny's follow-up, has been nominated for the prestigious Carnegie Medal. Jenny is married to a singer/songwriter and has two children.
Praise for Jenny Valentine: ‘Valentine has the essential storyteller's gift of making you want to read on – and to know more even after the book is finished.’ Guardian ‘The award-winning Valentine has a keen eye for the idiosyncrasies of young children, and the rhythms of family life.’ The Bookseller ‘[Valentine] has a wonderful ability to take readers right into the hearts and souls of her central characters, and reading her is always a truly vicarious experience.’ The Bookbag Praise for Iggy and Me on Holiday: ‘Amid so many books about children doing sometimes outrageous and often disgusting things, these fondly observed stories of the everyday and homely antics of Iggy, a much loved younger sister, are a delight.’ Julia Eccleshare, Guardian Praise for Iggy and Me: ‘Warm and funny and ideal for bedtime reading – either aloud or by newly confident readers on their own.’ The Scotsman ‘A My Naughty Little Sister for the current generation. Great for young readers.’ Literacy Time PLUS ‘An utterly charming new series for newly confident free readers in the vein of My Naughty Little Sister. Heavenly illustrations.’ Angels & Urchins ‘Funny and endearing, each chapter is a complete story in its own right, perfect for newly confident readers to enjoy alone, or for reading aloud at bedtime. Humorously illustrated, too, it is a joy.’ Liverpool Echo ‘Here is a fantastic book that is full of fun.’ Families Magazine
