Ask an author: Fiona Watt, creator of 'That's Not My...' books

What question would you like to ask the author of this much-loved series?

We love the 'That's Not My...' books. Featuring everything from pirates, to lions, to princesses, these award-winning books are wildly popular with parents and their little ones everywhere – they've sold over 12 million copies worldwide!.

 

With their bright colours and different textures to explore, they are a great way to introduce tiny babies to books. Thanks to the generosity of publisher Usborne, we've given them away in our Bookstart packs, and they've received the thumbs-up from the members of our Bookstart Bear Club too. Here's a sample review for That's Not My Bear...

Ask Fiona!

So we're delighted to be interviewing author of the 'That's Not My...' books, Fiona Watt, which will be coming soon to the Bookstart site, along with a fab competition.


What would you like to ask her? Maybe you have a suggestions for new books in the series? Or want to know her favourite story to share?

Today I thoroughly enjoyed revisiting touchy feely hide and Seek Dragons with my daughter who is aged 2 1/2 yrs and loves it. then I realised it was the same author as all the "thats not my..." books we borrow from the library all the time! Obviously we naturally gravitate to all of Fiona's wonderful books.
I hope my daughter won't expect all her books to be touchy feely when she grows up!

I love the 'Thats not my Baby' book with the mirror on the last page, it always reduces my 5 month old son into a fit of giggles when he sees his own face! Thank you for bringing such humour into his life at such an early age. Is there a 'Thats not my Mummy'?

My little boy loves your books Fiona and we would love to see more vehicles such as a truck, bike or digger :-) Have you thought about doing any new ones? x

My little boy loves your books and so do I! What gave you the idea for the books? The ideas are endless! That's not my Gnome?

My boys have all loved this series; these are always on our wish lists for birthdays and Christmases! We have so many memorised now! My question is: which title is your favourite and why? And my five-year-old's questions are: have you thought about doing "that's not my ninja" and is it possible to make a "that's not my" book that has smells?

Does Fiona find herself out and about thinking in That's not my... terms? I've found myself looking round a carpark going That's not my car, it's too dirty, that's not my car, it's too shiny, etc.!
