How to Train Your Dragon

By: Cressida Cowell

Libby audiobook 4 hours

Read by: Gerard Doyle

Published: 2003 (this version 2011)

Genre: Children's fantasy


This audiobook is in high demand! I waited for it so I could listen with Joshua, but ended up listening to it all day Sunday when I stayed home sick. It was more fun than I expected. I played it from the beginning for Joshua when he was in my car for a half hour yesterday, but I think I'll return it. He enjoyed it and wanted to hear more, but we don't spend as much time hanging out together as we used to . . . It's due before Thanksgiving and there's a long waiting list for it. Perhaps I'll just buy the print book for him.


Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III is the protagonist (and the theoretical "author" of this "true" history) and the son of Chief Stoic the Vast, chief of the Hairy Hooligans tribe. Other characters include Snotface Snotlout, Fishlegs, and Gobber the Belch.


I enjoyed listening to it but it's been a few weeks since I started this (11.11 to 11.26 . . . ) so I'll just publish this much. It was silly but fun. I've requested book two in the series.
