Did you guys see that Netflix show?! Oh my god, it's so GOOD! It's like Gravity Falls all over again!I've got nothing but overwhelmingly positive things to say about the Netflix series adaptation of this book. It's so whimsical and colorful and lusciously animated. I love every single character (David is obviously my favorite!) and I can't wait for more episodes. But that's obviously going to take a while, so I think I'm going to read the book series instead. Unfortunately, I can't find a copyI just got this comic as a late birthday present and had to read it right away. I'm already too fond of Pearson's little hero, Hilda, because of Netflix original series. She is adventurous, brave, kind and smart.

I flip through these pages and fall deeper and deeper in love with the LAYOUTS! The COLORS!

Obv her companion fox-with-antlers is freaking insanely adorbz. I know lots of quirky, hipster* librarians who would wear his pages as a
What a stunning little book this is. Pearson has rendered Hilda's world with incredible fullness, with a perfected palette of inviting and cozy brick, teal, and sea foam, expressive facial expressions and diverse compositions that make text almost unnecessary in his storytelling, and a fantastical setting that joins the mountains of Scandinavian countryside and monsters of its folklore naturally with modern language (What is this guy's problem?, I still think he's very rude, and a weirdo too....
Short, sweet, and whimsical. Loved the illustrations.
One of the things missing from too much of our narrative experiences is a sense of whimsy. It's not so much that everything should be whimsical, but more that it seems the vast majority of respected works are serious-minded, somber affairs. Much of what are considered to be the best examples of the storytelling mediums are works that challenge the reader's sense of the world or delve into the not-so-sunny depths of the human condition. As readers of Great Literature, we've become suspicious of
