Review by Horn Book Review

Hiccup's seventh adventure begins with a swimming contest: whoever takes the longest to return to shore wins, the upper limit being three months, five days, and six hours. The real test begins when Hiccup, Fishlegs (who can't swim), and Camicazi are kidnapped by old foes bound for America. As usual, the goofy names and silly slapstick coexist harmoniously with moments of real excitement. (c) Copyright 2011. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
