How to be a Viking
Cressida Cowell
The first HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON book ever, and the inspiration for Cressida Cowell's best-selling fiction books that is now a Dreamworks feature film. So begins Cressida Cowell's stories about a little Viking who cannot fit in. Unlike his dad, Stoick the Vast, Hiccup is tiny, thoughtful and polite and scared of almost everything - especially of going to sea for the very first time. But go he must... So who will save the day when everything goes wrong aboard ship and all the big Vikings lose their cool? This wonderfully witty fable will delight all those who have ever faced up to their worst fears. This 2014 reissue includes a letter from Cressida Cowell to the reader. 'This is a lovely book; it is warm and witty, with instant appeal...' - The Children's Bookseller

I love viking
Lady Sunny Nuggets 04.12.2024

I liked it because as soon as the grown up vikings got sea sick (even the boat got sick!) then Hiccup stopped being sick! It's really well illustrated.
Superintendent Chilli Humdinger 11.08.2023

I liked it when Hiccup proved that vikings get sick.
Judge Flopsy Bouncy-castle 14.09.2022

My favourite person in this book is Hiccup. I would recommend this book to someone who wants to be a Viking.
Master Ice-T Glitterball 15.08.2022

Hiccup was brave
Doctor Gargoyle Peanut-butter 31.07.2022

The funniest bit was when the more the stirred the better he felt with his sea sick problem.
Marshal July Sunshine 29.07.2022

I liked that the book was short and the part about the seasick Viking called Hiccup.
Doctor Slip Gormenghast 12.02.2022

Hiccup was a Viking, but he didn’t feel like one. Hiccup was scared of going to sea for the first time next week. The oldest Viking of all said to go to sea next week to tell him if Vikings ever get frightened. So hiccup goes to sea. But DO Vikings ever get frightened? There’s only one way to find out… I would certainly recommend this book to anyone especially 1-6 years. A great book.

Coach Arthur Chocolate-mousse 10.08.2021

Hiccup was scared of spiders, thunder, sudden loud noises and going to the sea. At the end he was not frightened anymore.
Inspector Geronimo Jumpsuit 31.07.2021

Constable Aardvark Chocolate-mousse 12.08.2020

I didn’t like the part where the big vikings wouldn’t let him play but i did like it at the end when he told his grandad that vikings can be seasick sometimes
Master Binky Jamboree 31.07.2020

Hiccup was the main character . Shoick the Vast kept saying the wrong things like vikings never get seasick, but they all did! Hiccuo then recovered to sail the ship back safety to Burk.
Prince Dragon Owl 30.07.2020

It was tricky to read but worth it!
