Cressida Cowell rewinds to the '70s

Best-selling author-illustrator of the hit How To Train Your Dragon franchise, Cressida Cowell, takes us back to the 1970s with her flashback track: Romantic Flight by John Powell from the soundtrack of her first movie — and what a journey it takes us on! Join me, Thomas Leeds, and my idol Cressida Cowell as we explore everything from her childhood summers on a wild Scottish island, to her difficult school years, to the extraordinary journey from her first sketch of that little viking boy to selling millions of books around the world in 46 languages and seeing them brought to life in no fewer than 4 Hollywood movies, 3 TV series and even their own theme park in Florida! She shares with us some really beautiful stories of her lovely dad who inspired Hiccup’s father Stoick in the books, and there’s plenty of glorious ‘70s nostalgia too! I really hope you enjoy time-travelling with us today.Make sure you don’t miss my next brilliant guest — subscribe today and share with anyone else you think might fancy escaping to the past with us.
