· Brief Comment :
In my opinion, even though it was full of comedy or jokes in every single of chapter, but it actually contain messages from the writer. I think it is a good story because I like the plot, characters, and the atmospheres. It is really my genre. This is obviously a children book. Yet I enjoyed reading it. It is enjoyable for older readers too. It's funny and gives spirit to not give up. The story is full with adventures, no space to get bored; and the pace is not dragging. It's a fun read, with the creatures, the sea, and the unbelievable people. I like when hiccup finally finds his strength by looking at himself from another angle. Inspiring.
