I'm having cinnamon chip toast, vanilla icelandic style yogurt, and another giant cup of tea for #SecondBreakfast #Readathon

Mehso-so

Well, it‘s maybe a little better than the first, but I still find it meh. Again, I find the reliance on scatological humor distracting and insulting to the kids who are the target audience. Sure, kids laugh at farts and all, but we can give them a little more credit. I‘m done with this series.

Dragon Tamer Training: 3.5⭐️

So what happens after you learn to train your dragon? It‘s obvious, you need to learn to be a pirate. Hiccup and his classmates now must least all about sword fighting and defending one‘s self and much more while out at sea. These are every important things to know about when a mysterious box and person arrive at the village in need of help to search for a treasure.

1. Physical
2. Library, litsy swaps, or Barnes and Noble
3. Yes. I‘ve come to love audiobooks - though I generally stick to nonfiction so I don‘t have to worry about terrible character voices 😂
4. Overdrive
5. Bought this and a few other books from ThriftBooks. Was my first time ordering through there

As I am currently trying to finish my Master‘s Thesis within the next few days I cannot focus on any heavy books, so I‘ve decided on this one to be my next read. Yoda approves. #catsoflitsy

Actually enjoyed this one (on audio, David Tennant, again) more than the first! Just put book 3 (audio, of course) on reserve at the library!

Did I mention that David Tennant reads these in his natural Scottish accent? I did? Okay. 😉 #audiobook #readingwithmyears

I'm working in my classroom to prep for the rest of the week while the students have the day off. Some snacks and this audiobook narrated by David Tenant are the perfect light accompaniment for my day.

Daisey @DGRachel Absolutely! I know these would be super fast reads for me, but I love listening to him narrate when I just need a fun audiobook!! 7y

Just finished the second book in this series and loved it! I seem to be whipping through the audios quite fast. David Tenant is perfection. 👌

I enjoyed How to be Pirate more than I did How to Train Your Dragon because I knew what to expect this time around. I really liked Hiccup's adventures in this one. They were fun to read about. And, book Toothless is starting to grow on me, though I still like movie Toothless better.

AvidReader25 I loved movie Toothless better too. 8y
melrailey Ok David Tennant narrates these audios and they are so very very good! 7y
