Do you know what goes into hot dogs?

This is the second book in the Dragonbreath series that I've read and I absolutely love it. I'm really enjoying these imaginative, funny tales, part text, part picture book, part graphic novel. Danny the dragon and Wendell the iguana are unique protagonists, really fun characters. Dragonbreath: Curse Of The Were-Wiener is a very entertaining read. The book is aimed at young readers, so it was quickly devoured. Nonetheless, it is very well written and engaging. I intend to read all of these stories that I can get my hands on. Then read them again. ( )

This is a really cute kids' book about were-hot-dogs being served in a school cafeteria and infecting a lot of the kids—including Danny Dragonbreath's best friend Wendell—with lycanthropy. Danny and Wendell have to team up with the sentient potato salad from book one to defeat the were-wieners.

This is a really cute installment of the series, as I have come to expect from Ursula Vernon. The plot of this one was silly (also as expected) but completely fun. Such a fun series. ( )

Cute, silly. Danny is a funny mix of genre-savvy and ignorant kid - "potato salad is the mortal enemy of hot dogs" and "What's a minion?" I'm surprised he's never run into the word in his games or comic books. The story is quite silly...except where it's not, and turns almost scary. Not quite, mostly because Danny takes everything so - not exactly calmly, but matter-of-factly. Fun read, though I doubt I'll bother to re-read. ( )

Dragonbreath book 3 definitely takes a gentler plot than one and two, and has some great twists as well. It subverts the first two's implied running themes: Danny can't breath fire, and traveling for example, and brings in much more fun times.

While this is not the most harrowing of the series, given book two had ninjas! A hiveminded bunch of school staff is definitely something funny and interesting.

I recommend people read this after #1 and #2 and have a blast! ( )

Whilst I do enjoy Ursula's quirky humour and her delightful illustrations, I did not enjoy this story as much as the earlier ones. Maybe because of the share ludicricty of being bitten by a hotdog and then developing fur - hotdogs don't have fur! Anyway, it's a hoot - with some outrageously crazy moments - including giant potato salads and hoards of rats, so I imagine it shall be most appreciated by the younger audience it is intended for. ( )
