Vikings are brave. But Hiccup isn't like other Vikings. He's afraid of everything... including the sea. When Hiccup heads off for his very first ocean voyage, his seasickness is the least of his worries The Vikings are lost in a terrible storm, and it's up to Hiccup to help them find their way home again. Featuring the beloved main character from the celebrated How to Train Your Dragon series, here's an exciting adventure that shows what it really means to be brave.
We started collecting the Hiccup chapter books last year for my 8 yr old who just loves the stories. Then I found this book when I went looking for new ones. I don't think it got published here, but I understand it was the book that started it all. Now his younger brother has a book he can read too! Fun story about a little boy who faces his fears. Yes, it's a common theme, but this is for little kids and it is a better story because of this author and the the little viking. Incidentally, all the Hiccup stories are very funny and the boys love them. And they are not as off-color as Captian Underpants and Wimpy Kid series -- which get a bit carried away for my taste. True heroism, funny dragons, and grand adventures in every book. We have even listened to a few as books on CD and enjoyed them on long car trips. I highly recommend all the Hiccup stories and their author!

Cressida Cowell has written a very caring story to show that even adults get frightened and that is ok. It appears to be a wonderful story to share with children when they are frightened about something new in their lives. Well worth reading.
