Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III was an awesome sword-fighter, a dragon-whisperer and the greatest Viking Hero who ever lived. But it wasn't always like that.
In fact, in the beginning, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III was the most put upon Viking you'd ever seen. Not loud enough to make himself heard at dinner with his father, Stoick the Vast; not hard enough to beat his chief rival, Snotlout, at Bashyball, the number one school sport and CERTAINLY not stupid enough to go into a cave full of dragons to find a pet... It's time for Hiccup to learn how to be a Hero.
Reviews with the most likes.
Very different from the movie, but still a fun and exciting novel about how heroes are made.
The movie does a much, much better job at exploring the themes this book tries to.
This book is cute but much of the story is about social behaviors/interactions that are lost on Charlie. I don't think his interest is at all piqued by Hiccup's sense of inadequacy around his father and his rivals. He fell asleep a few nights while I was reading it, and then for a couple of nights he chose different books. I asked him if he wanted to stop reading it and try something else and he said yeah, so, we are.
