About the book

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.

Ganz niedliches Kinderbuch - ich mochte es gern: 3 Sterne Aber was das Buch wirklich unterhaltsam und amüsant gemacht hat war die Lesung - David Tennant ist ohne Frage der schottische Rufus Beck, der jeder einzelnen Figur durch seine Stimme ein eigenes Leben verleit! Grandios zu hören! Dafür ein Extra Stern. Aber vorsicht - die englischen Akzente haben es in sich. Als Buch sicher gut auf englisch lesbar. Als Hörbuch eher Hörlesern zu empfehlen, die etwas geübter sind!

This one is the best of the series so far. How to Twist a Dragon's Tale would make a really good movie *hint for DreamWorks*. I always like the books with Camicazi in it she's a cool charcter. And the love story at the end was surprisingly moving, that's something Hollywood could work with.

Ok so movie and book are really really different. It's hard to compare them but I love Hiccup and his sarcasm in this book (Toothless is way cuter in the movie though). And yes I'm going to read the whole series, obviously.
