Read the book that inspired the hit DreamWorks film How to Train Your Dragon 2.
Cressida Cowell grew up mostly in Central London. She has a BA in English Literature from Oxford University, a BA in Graphic Design from St Martin's and an MA in Narrative Illustration from Brighton. Cressida has written and illustrated eight books in the popular Hiccup series. How to Train Your Dragon has reached over 100,000 sales and is now published in over 33 languages. A Dreamworks feature film is due to be released in 2010. Cressida lives in Hammersmith with her husband, three children and two cats.
Quite simply, Cressida Cowell has an exceptional ability to give
children what they like. Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III is a Viking
who doesn't fit in: gawky and geeky, his adventures with his
hunting-dragon Toothless are madcap and marvellous. Give it to a
child, and see them become engrossed immediately.
*The Independent*
Pretty much everyone I know who has children adores these
audiobooks and have listened to them on many a long (and otherwise
fractious) car journey. Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III is a famous
dragon trainer but he had to learn the hard way. Proper LOL funny
as read by former Doctor Who David Tennant, you'll love listening
to them too.
