Kids will hoot at the ridiculous names and sympathize with Hiccup's exasperation with his truly obstinate but strangely lovable dragon. A delightful read.""--School Library Journal ""A narrative rich in dragon muck... genuinely fierce [and] intelligent.""--Kirkus ""This hilarious farce will appeal to heroic fiction fans.""--Booklist
