Bookbag loved [[Don't Read This Book! by Jill Lewis and Deborah Allwright]] and couldn't wait to find out more about it. Jill Lewis (actually Jill Walkinton and Alison Lewis) was kind enough to answer our questions.
* '''BB: Which three books should every child read?'''
JL: That's a hard question. [[''Goodnight Mr Tom]]'', [[''The Whales' Song]]'', [[''The Jolly Postman]]'', anything by [[Susanna Gretz]], [[''Mr & Mrs Pig's Evening Out '' by Mary Rayner]], [[''Revolting Rhymes '' by Roald Dahl]], [[Gargling With Jelly by Brian Patten|Brian Patten's poetry books]] - oh dear, we can't count.
* '''BB: Do you have any advice for aspiring writers and illustrators as to how to get published?'''
JL: If at first you don't succeed, try and try and try and try again. They say that you can expect 10 years' of rejection and we are living proof of that.
* '''BB: What are you reading at the moment?'''
