How to Train Your Dragon: Steal a Dragon's Sword: Book 9

Muito bom, material durável.

Amo éstos libros, me encanta el formato que tienen de que unas hojas sean más grandes que otras (siempre protegidas por las tapas). La historia es buena, aunque me tarde en leer por el idioma (pues me cuesta trabajo), sin embargo no me arrepiento de haber adquirido estos libros.En cuanto al servicio, no he tenido problemas, llegan en tiempo y forma. Me lo enviaron junto con otros libros que compré y todos llegaron en muy buen estado.

Heureux d'avoir reçu mes livres (commande de toute la série), mais... des livres neufs qui arrivent avec TOUTES les couvertures abîmées, c'est vraiment dommageable. Je ne sais pas si je renouvellerai l'expérience.

As advertised

Here is a review from my 8-year old, in his words:It was awesome. People who like dragons, but not in the dragon-slaying kind of way, will like this book. The dragons are awesome because they eat fish and winkles, not humans. But the end of this book (spoiler: _____ becomes the chief and ____ is almost sold into slavery) it was strange. I'm so excited about the 10th book, because in the chapter at the end of this book is really exciting and there is a new dragon character in it. I'm going to read it before my brother does, whether he likes it or not.From my 10-year old son, in his words:I read the whole series in about a week, it was so good. There are pictures so you don't have to visualize it if you don't want to. The pictures help, but even without them this book would be easy to read. If you like Vikings and you like dragons, it's the perfect book for you. It's really fun and cool. The Vikings are all louts, crazy and don't have good sense, except for Hiccup. My brother and I are going to fight over book 10 when it arrives this week!As a parent:This series by Cressida Cowell has captivated our kids' imaginations. We started the series with Books 1-3, and our then 7-year old devoured them. The books were considered such a treat that we ordered a new one as a reward for great behavior - our youngest preferred it to going out for ice cream of to the movies! Now that both boys are into the series, we've had great discussions about film adaptations of books: how an authors' work is sometimes changed when books are made into movies (note: this feels only loosely connected to the film!). It's also provided multiple chances to discuss culture and history (we now have a book of Norse myth and one about Vikings), and to bring it to life with color and humor. I can't really say that book 9 is any better than the others, but it does advance the series and keep kids firmly engaged in the story and characters. As the chief buyer of books in our household, I'm thrilled that both of our kids love this series...it's been well worth the investment.When I asked whether they planned to donate the series after it's complete, both boys assured me they want to keep it. "I only want to share How to Train Your Dragon books with people we trust, who will take care of them and return them. Because we are not going to give this series away when we are done with it, we're going to read the entire thing again."
