How to Train Your Dragon

This book is cute but much of the story is about social behaviors/interactions that are lost on Charlie. I don't think his interest is at all piqued by Hiccup's sense of inadequacy around his father and his rivals. He fell asleep a few nights while I was reading it, and then for a couple of nights he chose different books. I asked him if he wanted to stop reading it and try something else and he said yeah, so, we are.

This book accomplishes exactly what it set out to accomplish. The humor is ridiculous and the plot is just absolutely silly and wild. I connected with it more than Wizards of Once for some reason, maybe the dragons and all that. I would've found Toothless to be very funny when I was younger, so I'm bumping up the rating to 4 stars because of that.
