Edit: I recently re-read this book (the 'read' date refers to it)for an English class, and I will just add that I don't hate this book anymore. I recognize it is targeted to an audience that does not include me. However, I will keep my original review and rating so it can be viewed, as it is my original opinion. I read this book a long time ago, long before the movie ever came out. I love the movie, and absolutely adore Toothless. The book however, is a different story. Literally, a different story (the makers of "How To Train Your Dragon" took an entirely different spin on the basic idea of the book). Whereas Hiccup and Toothless, in the movie, have many good qualities, in the book they have absolutely no redeeming features. In the beginning the book remarks that Hiccup is later known as the "Dragon-whisperer," but it never explains why. Ever. From what I remember from the book, Hiccup was not only weak physically, but unintelligent, and his only hope is to can capture and hatch a powerful dragon to raise his standing in his tribe. Nope, it doesn't happen. Ever wonder why this dragon is named "Toothless?" Because the original had absolutely no teeth, at all. So Hiccup, being ever so clever, names his dragon Toothless, a creature with just as weak a character as it's master. In the end, the one and only reason he isn't eaten and digested by a behemoth of a dragon (also referred to in the movie) is because his horned helmet slips off his head, and plugs the dragon's fire-breathing holes in the back of its throat. This causes it to explode, and makes Hiccup a hero. Hooray! What happens next? Not much. Well, I suppose I'm being a little harsh, so I will say this: I did read the entire book. The idea itself was good, just the action of writing it out didn't quite work. Had I utterly despised the book, I would have skipped most of it, or simply returned to its dusty place on the shelf.
