"Plain smart and moving. John Stanley's Little Lulu meets Miyazaki."
—Guillermo Del Toro

Pearson’s utter lack of pretension keeps Hilda feeling fresh, while his reading of folktales and Tove Jansson’s Moomin series embeds Hilda in the long history of children’s stories. [...] Hilda’s dilemmas, while fantastic, also feel real [...] Pearson has found a lovely new way to dramatize childhood demons, while also making you long for your own cruise down the fjords.
—The New Yorker

Pearson has perfected Hilda's Scandinavian-style fantasy world, and his artwork is as captivating as ever.
—Booklist, STARRED REVIEW

Luke Pearson’s Hilda books are the most imaginative, most inspiring, and most beautiful all-ages stories published in the past decade. [...] This newest volume [...] is the best yet, suggesting that Hilda may join Tintin and the Moomins as comic-book immortals.
—Slate, Slate's 10 Favorite Comics of 2016

FIVE STARS [...] Another stunner in the episodes of Hilda.
—Youth Services Book Review

One of Today's Parent's 25 Best Kids' Books For Fall 2016

With a wonderfully expressive color palette and ever-sterling eye to quiet, unblemished storytelling, Pearson’s latest stands proudly among his other works. We look at works like Tintin as being distant memories of faded comics greatness; but Hilda is a series which surely will one day be looked at as a successor to the works of people like Herge, and a future classic in its own right.
—Comics Alliance

An imaginative, heartwarming, beautifully illustrated tale that all ages can enjoy. Exploring the relationship between Hilda and her single mother, it’s a great read for parents and their children, providing plenty of visual stimulus for younger readers in the context of an engaging narrative with a strong emotional foundation.
—AV Club

Hilda is such a smart, delightful and relatable character for adventurous young girls to read about.
—Mental Floss

a significant turning point in the series [...]Pearson's proven that this isn't a series of books that repeat actions from episode to episode, but rather a coherent serial that's slowly building to something more fantastic, calling back to old characters and details that may not have seemed important when they were introduced.
—Rob Clough

Hilda is back and as charming and adventurous as ever.
—The Wandering Bookseller

I heartily recommend the Hildafolk stories for young readers – especially those who love fairytales and myths – and for whom you would like to provide strong role models who don’t just slay the dragon and leave.
—Yuricon
