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.
When Hiccup’s dragon Toothless is captured by Romans, only Hiccup and his friend Fishlegs can rescue him. But things get WORSE, when the Romans steal Hiccup’s precious book HOW TO SPEAK DRAGONESE and Hiccup and Fishlegs are taken off to the Fortress of Sinister!
Now they must save Toothless AND themselves – but how can they possibly escape?
How to Train Your Dragon is now a major DreamWorks franchise starring Gerard Butler, Cate Blanchett and Jonah Hill and the TV series, Riders of Berk, can be seen on CBeebies and Cartoon Network.

This is book three in the How to Train Your Dragon series. They keep getting better and better. It's the best book ever!
Cowell brings Hiccup to life in this silly and delightful little novel.
It's the best book ever! They keep getting better and better.
'If you haven't discovered Hiccup yet, you're missing out on one of the greatest inventions of modern children's literature.'
Bulging with good jokes, funny drawings and dramatic scenes, it is absolutely wonderful.
'funny and well writen'
How to Train Your Dragon is a delightful narrative caper... It offers a challenging read to 11-year-olds, and rewards reading aloud, especially for those who relish an element of theatre at story time.

A wonderfully wittily written and illustrated story.
We've loved Hiccup's dragon training adventures from the start. (tBk's Top 40 Children's Books)
[Cressida Cowell] puts a contemporary spin on the old brains over brawn moral and brings the story to a climax with a thrilling dragon duel. Lots for lots of different readers to enjoy.
... raucous and slapstick... liberally illustrated with [Cressida Cowell's] riotous drawings, notes and maps.
Good jokes, funny drawings and dramatic scenes
CHILDREN'S BOOK OF THE WEEK: 'This book is great fun and has a Blackadderish sense of humour ... full of the sort of jokes that will make schoolboys snigger.'
'another fiendishly funny catalogue of disaster'
'Irresistably funny, exciting and endearing'
