An extravagent book.
I loved this book, but i haven't seen the film yet. It has a little bit of violence and bullying, but nothing too bad. Hiccup is a good role model because he always tries his absolute best to succeed, and is always a hero. I hope you enjoy this book as well.

Hilarious
This book is absolutely hilarious! I can read it over and over again and laugh out loud every time. It had a lighthearted, fun plot, and lots of humor added in. I like the hero because he is an ordinary boy, an unlikely hero, but he ends up saving his whole Viking tribe. The Viking setting adds positively to the experience!

A Great Fantasy Read
the good stuff: Hiccup is a great role model while Toothless doesn't listen and is always complaining. Fishlegs is a good role model too and helps Hiccup out in a tough situation. On the downside, Snotlout and Dughsbrain are always bullying Hiccup and Fishlegs.
the bad news:you see a bare-bottom Viking in a cartoonish picture, and there's plenty of potty humor. dragons fight each other and Hiccup and the Green Death have a discussion about cannabolisim. other than that, the violence is fairly mild.

Try this book out
I loved this book and it's a page turner. Once you start it you cannot stop. I have read all the books in the series except the last one. Here is the order:
-how to train your dragon
-how to be a pirate
-How to Speak Dragonese
-How to Cheat a Dragon's Curse
-How to Twist a Dragon's Tale
-A Hero's Guide to Deadly Dragons
-How to Ride a Dragon's Storm
-How to Break a Dragon's Heart
Also there is a book that Crowell supposedly translated toothless's point of view and it's called How to train your Viking!

Great. Just great.
The "How To Train Your Dragon" series is great! Some of the plots in this series include: training a dragon (as said in the first book's title), saving The Hairy Hooligans, escaping Romans, and stealing a potato (it makes much more sense in context). Hiccup, Fishlegs, and Camicazi make a great team. I think it's better than the movie.

Way better than the dumb movie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This book is pricelessly great. It has funny moments like when Gobber was thrown by the Seadragonise Maximunis. Suspense like when Hiccup thought Toothless was dead. Better then the movie and that's a promise.
