About the Poet


Jacqueline Jules is a former librarian who found herself intrigued by almost every book she put on the shelf.  As a reader and as a writer, she doesn’t restrict herself to one genre. She is the author of 50 books for young readers on a wide variety of topics, including a poetry book, Tag Your Dreams: Poems of Play and Persistence (Albert Whitman). Her poetry has appeared in over 100 publications. Please see information about her three chapbooks, Field Trip to the Museum, (Finishing Line Press), Stronger Than Cleopatra (ELJ Publications), and Itzhak Perlman’s Broken String (Evening Street Press). Her first full length poetry book, Manna in the Morning, was released by Kelsay Books in 2021.
