We're delighted to welcome zoologist and ethologist Desmond Morris to Mumsnet for a Q&A session.

Desmond is the author of many bestselling books on human and animal behaviour, including People Watching, Naked Ape and Babywatching.

In a recent interview with The Guardian, Desmond caused some controversy by saying he thinks TV is as good for toddlers as books.

Desmond's latest book, Child: How Children think, learn and grow in the early years explores the world of children from the ages of two to five, as they emerge from toddlerdom and start out on the long road to independence. Age-by-stage profiles describe growth patterns, social and emotional behavior, physical and cognitive skills.

Please post your questions to Desmond on this thread before the end of Friday 5th November, and we'll post up his answers the following week.
