Cressida Cowell Quotes

Attention Spans Are Changing. It's Very Noticeable. I Am Very Aware That The Kind Of Books I Read In My Childhood Kids Now Won't Be Able To Read. I Was Reading Kipling And PG Wodehouse And Shakespeare At The Age Of 11. The Kind Of Description And Detail I Read I Would Not Put In My Books. I Don't Know How Much You Can Fight That Because You Want Children To Read. So I Pack In Excitement And Plot And Illustrations And Have A Cliffhanger Every Chapter. Charles Dickens Was Doing Cliffhangers Way Back When. But Even With All The Excitement You Have To Make Children Care About The Characters.
