How to train your Dragon: Book review

Today I'm going to review the book, "How to train your Dragon".


Well, "How to train your Dragon" is a bit of a kiddie book, the story is about Hiccup, a small and feable kid who isn't very good at anything leadership related, by chance, he's the chief's only son and is destined to be the village chief.
As life goes on and gets tougher, he has to tame his own dragon, this is a must.
Failing to do so, will result in exile.
After a series of events, and some fun stuff, our hero gets his dragon, but, the dragon seems to be special, it seems to standout from the other dragons.
Hiccup manages to find his strength and overcomes some obstacles in an impressive way.
It's a cute book to read, only 213 pages, and is well worth your time.

I recommend this book if you enjoy the occasional kiddie book, it's a nice book that's all fiction but is very descriptive, not too much, but just enough. Recommended also for children who like fiction and dragons, much better than the movie, a whole different concept so eventhough I didn't really like the movie, it will not interfere if you want to see it later.
The book is the first in a series of 5 books, I've read 4 of the books, the first two, in my opinion were the best, the other 2 were fine, I didn't bother reading the 5th because it seemed the idea wore out, still enjoyed the books and I might even look into reading some more of Cressida's books.


4/5 for "How to train your Dragon", will probably read the 5th book sometime too.
