"A narrative rich in dragon muck... genuinely fierce [and] intelligent."--Kirkus

"This hilarious farce will appeal to heroic fiction fans."--Booklist

..".This is a goofy and exciting tale of an underdog who proves that brains can be just as important as brawn. 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
