Photograph: Nick Potts/PA Frank Lampard after scoring his favourite goal: the equaliser against Barcelona in October 2006. I do not miss playing for them because from the moment I arrived at Chelsea I have had such an amazing time and feel very close to the club and the fans. Every time I train I try to train my hardest and this is very important to become a professional footballer.

The best thing is when a boy or girl tells me that they have read one of the books and really liked it! It is hard writing books but I think it is such a great feeling when you come up with a story that you think people will enjoy to read. I love that I have been lucky enough to have such a long career in football as it is what I always wanted to do since I was very young. Frank Lampard speaks to site members about how he combines writing his Frankie's Magic Football books with playing the beautiful game, his love for libraries and The BFG plus his best ever goal. I am really enjoying writing about Frankie now and I like the fact the books are a good age for young boys and girls who are just beginning to read.

Enter our fantastic competition to win a signed Chelsea shirt and a complete set of signed Frankie's Magic Football books! In the future I would like to try different places for Frankie to travel but I certainly enjoyed taking him back to interesting times in history. You could be the proud owner of a Chelsea shirt signed by Frank himself plus a complete set of all six Frankie's Magic Football books including Frank's latest book: Frankie and the World Cup Carnival. I will always remember how West Ham and particularly Harry Redknapp and my Dad helped me start my career.

It was my favourite subject at school and I thought it was a good idea to have lots of fun with some education in there as well so you can learn. Seeing as football is such a big part of my life I thought it would be fun to create stories around a magic football for young boys and girls. It is the biggest football competition in the world and I would love to be part of an England team that win it.It was a few years ago now but I managed to chip the ball over the goalkeeper from the goal line which is something I'm not sure I could ever do again!

The reason I wanted the first series of FMF to have history and football was that I love football and I also love history. Why did you want the book to have history and football and are you going to keep writing history-football books? I can imagine Frankie and the gang kicking around with Neanderthals who would probably hardly know the rules of football!In the future I can imagine Frankie travelling forwards and backwards in time and to lots of different interesting parts of the world. Maybe in the future I will try something different but there are lots of ideas I have for Frankie now so that will have to wait.
