Quick Summary
When Hiccup and Toothless find themselves stranded on the infamous Beach of the Broken Heart, they must outwit a grotesque cast of enemies while racing to rescue Fishlegs from a monstrous beast. Kids will be drawn into the clever scheming, razor-close escapes, and the lovable duo's slap-stick banter that turns every battle into a side-splitting showdown. If your kid loves the humor-filled chaos of Diary of a Wimpy Kid combined with the dragon-filled quests of Wings of Fire, they'll be hooked on this wild ride. The book works best for middle-grade readers ages 9-12 or grades 4-8.
