Vicki Johnson

Vicki Johnson was the head teacher of an outstanding primary school for many years. Throughout her career, she wrote specifically for groups of children, adapting plots and characters to reflect their interests and devising scripts, musicals and stories to inspire, engage and challenge. She began writing thrillers for reluctant readers but which could also be read aloud and hold the attention of everyone in a class. With Wolf Jacket, even reluctant teenage boys have been known to read ahead. Married, with two grown-up children and four grandchildren, she lives in Exmouth, Devon.
