The stories are about Christopher Robin and these good companions having wonderful times getting in and out of trouble. It is all very exciting and, really, quite thrilling no matter how young or old you may be. It is painful to try and imagine what the world would be like without them.

7 year old son LOVES this
What did you love best about How to Cheat a Dragon's Curse?
"The Dragons, of course"- my seven year old son who listened to it.
What does David Tennant bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Other than he's also The Doctor and is awesome? Tennant has a very expressive voice and nice accent to listen to. If you have watched Doctor Who during the tenth doctor's era you can almost visualize his facial expressions.
Any additional comments?
My seven year old son (high functioning autism and adhd) loved listening to this while he played minecraft on his kindle.

Love this series, but not the narrator
This a great series. I purchased the first three books in the series unabridged and with a different narrator. For this book unabridged and with the original narrator wasn't an option. At first I thought my dislike of the narrator was me just not liking change, but as the story progressed my opinion of the narrator didn't. He uses voices that make the characters sound mentally retarded. I still enjoyed the story, but was distracted by the narration.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Love this series of audiobooks, David Tennant's delivery is spot on. We listen to them in the car and often end up sitting and listening even when we have reached our destination!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Toothless is a great character, and far more interesting in the books than he is in the films.
What about David Tennant’s performance did you like?
David Tennant's characterisations are brilliant, we love the dragon voices.
If you made a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
The Dragons fly again!

David Tennant does a stellar job bringing the story to life. Even if you are not a kid anymore, Cressida Cowell's tales of Hiccup are so much fun to listen to that it is seriously addictive. Shame though that this is an abridged version.

Camicazi
Camicazi, Camicazi, Camicazi! BEST CHARACTER IN THE WORLD! Hiccup's good, Fishlegs is funny but Camicazi is definitely the best with her amazing Welsh accent.

Cowell is a genius writer
As a family of mum, dad and kids 14, 12, 10 - we are loving these books on our car journeys. Something for everyone. Not too young.
