As a reader, she devours every genre—biography, poetry, essays, science fiction, mystery, etc. As a writer, she doesn't restrict herself to one genre, either. Her work has been published in over 100 journals and she is the author of 30 books for young readers on a wide variety of topics. She is also the author of two poetry books, Field Trip to the Museum (Finishing Line Press) and Stronger Than Cleopatra (ELJ Publications). Visit www.jacquelinejules.com
