Read the HILARIOUS books that inspired the HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON films!

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third is a smallish Viking with a longish name. Hiccup’s father is chief of the Hairy Hooligan tribe which means Hiccup is the Hope and the Heir to the Hairy Hooligan throne – but most of the time Hiccup feels like a very ordinary boy, finding it hard to be a Hero.

Hiccup’s best friend Fishlegs thinks he has a nasty cold, but Old Wrinkly has diagnosed . . . VORPENTITIS, caused by the sting of a Venomous Vorpent, which is pretty much ALWAYS FATAL!

The only antidote is the Vegetable-that-No-one-Dares-Name – the POTATO. But the only way for Hiccup to find the cure is to face Norbert the Nutjob and the terrifying Sea Dragon, the DOOMFANG.
Can Hiccup survive the quest to save his best friend – and discover how to cheat a dragon’s curse?

How to Train Your Dragon is a major award-winning DreamWorks film series. There is also a new live action movie due to be released in 2025. The TV series, Riders of Berk, can be seen on CBeebies and Cartoon Network.

I like this book because it is filled with of fantasy and adventure with dragons added to the Viking age. My favourite character is Hiccup because he’s an under dog and makes it to the top the hard way. I would definitely recommend this book and the whole series.

My favourite characters are Hiccup and Kamekazi because they always think of a plan and Kamekazi is a very good burglar. I learnt that you should alaways be kind and loyal to your friends like Hiccup is to Kamekazi and Fishlegs.

I really liked this book a lot because it has a very scary end unlike most children’s books. I would recommend it to someone else because it has a lot of scary but exciting things happening in the book.
