How To Train Your Dragon review by a dragon expert - Sabine, 8, of Sydney.

What I thought about the movie “How To Train Your Dragon compared to the book” 

On Friday the 26th of march I saw ‘How to Train your Dragon’. I thought it was a really good movie. Because I have read the book before, I want to write a little description. I thought the movie was very different to the book. I think I like the book better than the movie because in the book Hiccup Horrendous Haddock the Third is the hero and also in the book Hiccup finds his dragon (Toothless) in a cave, while in the movie he caught him with a trap. He almost killed him but he couldn’t because somehow he knew Toothless was his special dragon. I also liked the book because there were lots of funny characters such as Fishlegs, Hiccups best friend, Stoic the vast, Hiccups father, and last but not least Big Boobied Bertha, Hiccups friend and Camacazi’s mother. My favourite part was when Hiccup trained Toothless. I like this part the best because it was really funny and silly. If you people ever get to watch it I hope you enjoy it!

Note: Sabine writes like this without any help from grown-ups. Pretty good huh? That's what you get when you read to children from an early age - comprehension. She also loves the theatre, listening to audio books, tea parties in the playroom with her friends and laughing at silly jokes. She's been listening to the many versions of my book as it evolves since she was five. _ Scriffles.
