How to Train Your Dragon: Legend of the Boneknapper Dragon presented by DreamWorks.
Plot: Some time after the events of How to Train Your Dragon, Hiccup's village rushes to put out a fire at the blacksmith's home. Despite the scoffs of the elders, Gobber insists the fire was deliberately set by the mythical boneknapper dragon. Hiccup manages to convince the other trainees of the village to assist Gobber in his quest to finally destroy the monster. During the group's travels, the blacksmith relates how he first encountered the dragon and the creature's subsequent attempts to destroy him. However, Hiccup questions the cause of the creature's apparent vendetta.
Genre: Animation
Reading Level: Not rated, but the movie it is based on is rated PG
Similar Titles: Secrets of the Furious Five, Your Friend the Rat, Penguins of Madagascar
Personal Thoughts: The movie was a bonus to the How to Train Your Dragon DVD. The show bounces between the 3D animation of the movie and the 2D animation of tradition. While some find the switch unnerving, it really adds to the separation between the "real" world and the world of Gobber's stories.
Strangely enough, Toothless does not appear in the film (he's very upset, I'm sure).
