Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third is a smallish Viking with a longish name. Hiccup's father is chief of the Hairy Hooligan tribe and that means, to his constant dismay, Hiccup is his heir. Even worse, to be initiated into the Hairy Hooligan Tribe, Hiccup and ten other novices must train their dragons or be BANISHED from the tribe FOR EVER! But Hiccup's dragon resembles an ickle brown bunny with wings and has NO TEETH!
 
Join Hiccup and Toothless as they go on fantastical adventures featuring dragons, pirates and ancient evil beasts, in this best-selling series from Cressida Cowell. Now a major film series.
