We're very pleased to announce that Cressida Cowell will be joining us for a webchat on Saturday 26 September at 10:30am.

Cressida Cowell's How To Train Your Dragon series made has her a household name. Her scratchy, vivid illustrations, mischievous humour, support of the underdog and crazy plotlines have enthralled young readers across the land. As well as being a global bestseller, it also inspired the Dreamworks film franchise of the same name: the second movie, How To Train Your Dragon 2, came out last year, and was a box office smash. Somehow, she's also found the time to continue her work for the National Literacy Trust (NLT), the Children's Media Foundation (CMF) and The Reading Agency.

This month, she brings the series to an end in How to Fight a Dragon's Fury, the 12th and final adventure for Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III.

On Saturday 3 October Cressida will be joining a glittering line-up of authors at the Telegraph Bath Children's Literature Festival, which runs for 10 days from Friday 25 September (visit the website for further information).

Good morning Cressida we're delighted that you're able to join us our first ever Saturday morning webchat. There are plenty of questions already posted on the thread but I'd like to kick off with the questions we ask all the authors that join us:

What childhood book most inspired you?

What would be the first piece of advice you would give to anyone attempting to write fiction?

And the best you've received?

Over to you...

Just 5 minutes of our webchat left, thought I would post a couple of questions before you go:

How many dragons is "too many" for one household?"

How did you come up with inspiration for dragons and vikings to live together?

THANKEE to to you too Cressida, we've loved having you with us this morning. We look forward to reading about new worlds and anticipate more HTTYD adventures in the future. Hopefully you'll join us again soon!
