- Malorie Blackman (Noughts and Crosses) because she has written an amazing series on a dystopia where black people (crosses) descriminate against white people (noughts)
- JK Rowling (Harry Potter) because she had no money and sent her first book to the publishers in a reporters jotter, and it was left alone for a couple of years before they published but the series is amazing :)
- Jacqueline Wilson (Tracy Beaker etc) totally iconic children's stories and she wrote LOADS
- Jerry Spinelli (Star Girl) It's impossible not to love Stargirl's amazing, if slightly erratic character. In my opinion she represents the creative fearless person in all of us that we're too scared to show for fear of standing out.
- C.S Lewis (Chronicles of Narnia) I love this series and I admit to trying to walk through my wardrobe shamelessly looking for Narnia.
