Read the HILARIOUS books that inspired the HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON films!
Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third is a smallish Viking with a longish name. Hiccup's father is chief of the Hairy Hooligan tribe which means Hiccup is the Hope and the Heir to the Hairy Hooligan throne - but most of the time Hiccup feels like a very ordinary boy, finding it hard to be a Hero.
Hiccup Haddock Horrendous the Third just wants a nice PEACEFUL birthday. But Hiccup's dad wants to steal the prized How to Train Your Dragon book, and prove that his Hooligans are just as good as the Bog Burglars - except Hiccup's dragon Toothless has EATEN it!
So when Camicazi suggests stealing a copy from the grim Meathead Public Library, it seems like a good idea. BUT IT ISN'T! The library is guarded by the Horrible Hairy Scary the Librarian, four hundred Meathead Warrior Guards AND their Driller-Dragons . . .
Will Hiccup survive - or is he DOOMED on his own birthday?
ALSO INCLUDES A DRAGONESE DICTIONARY!

Books were despised by the Viking Tribes, as they were seen as a horrible civilizing influence and a threat to the barbarian culture. Because they were banned, they were locked up in the great grim Meathead Public Library, guarded by the terrible Hairy Scary Librarian…Oh, dear.
But here, it was like entering a cave full of treasure.I couldn’t help but be swept up in Hiccup’s excitement at the vast store of knowledge before him. Though I often take NY’s large libraries and sprawling bookstores for granted, it was lovely to live vicariously through Hiccup, imagining what it might be like to come upon such a place for the first time. I can certainly appreciate his burning curiosity and the little voice in his head pleading with him to grab a tome and dive in.
“WOW,” breathed Hiccup, “if you stayed here long enough you really could find the answer to everything…”
"Well I'm very sorry, too," whispered the Hairy Scary Librarian, sadly shaking his head and drawing out another sword with his left hand. "But I think that these books are MINE all MINE." A horrible gloating and greedy look came into his mad, half-blind eyes.Um. I think this Mr. Hairy Scary and I might have something in common…
