Its sequel, How to Train Your Dragon 2, was released in 2014 to wide acclaim. The animated fantasy feature was a box office monster in 2010-enchanting audiences young and old with its dazzling mix of adventure, comedy, and coming of age drama. But a courageous spirit burns within, and after befriending a fearsome dragon, young Hiccup transforms into the great dragon master and Viking leader he was destined to be. It's no wonder this YA series became incredibly popular with kids and adults alike. Alas, Hiccup’s slight frame and awkward personality put him at odds with his fellow warriors. Hiccup is the son of Stoick the Vast, the great leader of the Hooligans. Like Cowell’s book series, the film adaptation of How to Train Your Dragon follows Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III, a young Viking of the Hairy Hooligan tribe who hails from the Isle of Berk. Seven years later, Cowell’s literary creation lit up the silver screen when DreamWorks released 2010’s How to Train Your Dragon, the first animated feature in a trilogy based on the books. Author Cressida Cowell inspired young readers around the world to dream of dragons when she published 2003’s How to Train Your Dragon, the first in her beloved 12-book fantasy series about the adventures of Hiccup the Viking and his dragon companion Toothless.
