About this listen

Listen to the books that inspired the How to Train Your Dragon films, narrated by David Tennant.

THE STORY CONTINUES in the second volume of Hiccup's How to Train Your Dragon memoirs....

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III was an awesome sword-fighter, a dragon-whisperer and the greatest Viking Hero who ever lived. But it wasn't always like that. Hiccup's memoirs look back to when Hiccup was just an ordinary boy, and finding it very hard to be a Hero.

Can Hiccup find Grimbeard the Ghastly's treasure before Alvin the Treacherous gets his sneaky hands on it? And if Hiccup opens a box that says DO NOT OPEN, will he live to tell the tale?

How to Train Your Dragon is now a major DreamWorks franchise starring Gerard Butler, Cate Blanchett and Jonah Hill and the TV series, Riders of Berk, can be seen on CBeebies and Cartoon Network.

Read the rest of Hiccup's exploits in the rest of the series and check out the all-new Hiccup website at www.howtotrainyourdragonbooks.com. It's the place to go for games, downloads, activities and sneak peeks!

unashamedly British tales of the underdogs

Tennant joyfully breathes life to characters that are so different to their film namesakes, that he created something new and even more enjoyable for our three girls and us. As these stories are unabridged they make long holiday car journeys pass by without argument or complaint. The only complaints come later when the kids mimic toothless' difficult and complaining attitude.

Love these books

We loved them in print with child 1. Child 2 is getting hooked with these masterful renditions.

Excellent performance of an exciting story

David Tennant has a talent for bringing each character to life in vivid comedy. My son says he almost believes it is real. We can’t wait for the next one.
