by author Cressida Cowell and Martin caught up with her to get

:04:09.:04:12.

all the details about the new movie and what it takes to

become a successful writer. Hello, I am Cressida Cowell and I am

:04:16.:04:25.

the author of the How To Train Your Dragon books.

:04:26.:04:31.

Some may say that this is poorly conceived! It is good that I never

:04:32.:04:38.

listen. How did you come up with the

:04:39.:04:43.

concept? Dragons were real, according to the

:04:44.:04:49.

Vikings. So I pretended that that was the case. I started writing the

:04:50.:04:52.

books when I was nine years old. What happened now? You will love

this. What should we expect from the

difference PCs and gives you -- types of dragons, and it gives you

:05:27.:05:30.

ideas of how to look after them. It is a reference book.

:05:31.:05:36.

If you love writing and like to make up stories and draw your own

:05:37.:05:39.

characters, maybe you could be a writer one day. Why not?

:05:40.:05:43.

Last up, some amazing art that you can't see in a gallery, or own.

:05:44.:05:47.

American artist Andres Amador uses sand as his canvas, and creates

:05:48.:05:49.

It takes him hours to complete each artwork but they disappear forever
