We've all watched the movie, right? It was such a cute movie :) So you probably expect that the storyline of the movie followed the book, for the most part at least ...
Well, the book is actually quite different to that of the movie. Now you're probably thinking that in most cases the book is better than the movie, so this must be the case here. But I'm glad to say that this isn't one of those cases. While the movie deviates quite a lot from the book, both are great on its own!
In the book, we join Hiccup & his friend Fishlegs as they attempt to train their respective dragons to earn a place in the tribe. Failure to train your dragon to perform certain feats will lead to exile!
While Hiccup is not very assertive and commanding, he is very smart. But will this be enough to get him through the test and secure him a place on the tribe? For Hiccup, the stakes are higher since he is to succeed his father, Stoick the Vast, as leader of the tribe.
I rate this book a 4/5. It is a great read for all ages and is a quick read as well. It's a feel good book that will have you smiling.
