Join former Waterstones Children’s Laureate Cressida Cowell as she talks about her out-of-this-world new series, Which Way to Anywhere, and reveals how she was inspired by an idea she first had 25 years ago. She’ll also talk about her bestselling How to Train Your Dragon books and The Wizards of Once series.
One of the main themes of her new series is that the real magic is imagination. Come along with your questions and get ready for Cowell’s creativity tips and inspiration.
Cowell is the author and illustrator of the bestselling How to Train Your Dragon and The Wizards of Once series. She is also the author of the Emily Brown picture books, illustrated by Neal Layton. How to Train Your Dragon has sold over 8 million books worldwide in 38 languages. It is also an award-winning DreamWorks film series, and a television series shown on Netflix and CBBC.
