"If you haven't discovered Hiccup yet, you're missing out on one of the greatest inventions of modern children's literature." —Julia Eccleshare, Guardian

"This book is great fun and has a Blackadderish sense of humour... full of the sort of jokes that will make schoolboys snigger." —Nicolette Jones, The Sunday Times

"How to Train Your Dragon is a delightful narrative caper... It offers a challenging read to 11-year-olds, and rewards reading aloud, especially for those who relish an element of theatre at story time." —Lindsey Fraser, Sunday Herald

"Raucous and slapstick...liberally illustrated with [Cressida Cowell's] riotous drawings, notes and maps." —The Financial Times

"[Cressida Cowell] puts a contemporary spin on the old brains over brawn moral and brings the story to a climax with a thrilling dragon duel. Lots for lots of different readers to enjoy." —Books for Keeps
