3 1/2 stars, fast-paced, fun and irreverent fantasy. Full of friends, magical animals, cute pets and Hilda, saving the day at the center, these are great for kids moving on from beginning chapter books.

I like this book, very adventurous and interesting. My favourite creature in this book is the little, white reindeer!

A nice sequel - fun creatures, and Hilda is just great!

Nečetla jsem komiksovou Hildu, ale hádám, že má mnohem větší šťávu, zejména díky pěkné kresbě. Trošku špatně se mi hodnotí dětské knihy neb nejsem cílový čtenář a obecně jsem tomu trendu čtení dětských knih z pozice dospělého moc neporozuměla, nicméně tenhle kousek podle mě nepřichází s ničím extra nápaditým.

For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleA fun mashup that takes influence from Luke Pearson's graphic novels, the Netflix adaptation, and a few changes of its own.The second book in the series covers episodes 3, 5, and 7 of the show. It was interesting to see how Davies combined the plots of these three episodes to create their own story. There were quite a few differences because of this, with added details as needed. This made the book very much feel like its own entity rather than ju...

Cute concept and fast plot, but Hilda can be rather rude and the characters are very 2D (maybe i should've expected that).Favourite quote: "We need to get back to the Lost Clan of the Northern Counties before sunset or our friend David will have to fight Ancient Agnes.""First World problems," muttered the spirit.

And another swing and a miss for the Hilda tie in books. I was super excited to see how they'd flesh out the Hilda episodes/graphic novels (wasn't sure which way they'd go, honestly) and uh this was certainly a series of choices. If you're the sort who isn't fond of changes being made just because they can, this is either one to miss entirely or one to read before you watch the Hilda series or read the graphic novel. Truthfully though, I'd skip this and just enjoy those two as they mesh much bet...

Gosto tanto de Hilda! Uma personagem tão adorável e aventureira, adorava ter tido a oportunidade de ler este livros quando fui mais nova. Apesar de já ser mais "adulta", acho estas histórias incríveis e cheias de magia! Quero o próximo!Motivos Pelos Quais Acho Que Deves Conhecer A História de Hilda

I’m just not as huge a fan of the characters in this book series as I am the Netflix show. In the show they are all kind and supportive of each other, but in these novelizations it’s almost like everybody only cares about themselves.

I didn't enjoy this one as much as its predecessor. For some reason, the author decided to change around the order of events from when they happen on the show. Basically, take episodes 3,5, and 7 and move them around so that the beginning and ending of episode 3 bookends the other two and you have this book. If the changes made sense, I wouldn't mind so much, but I felt like a lot of subtle moments were lost through this and some characters made worse. Trevor goes from a pretty normal kid - reme...

Ce deuxième tome prend des libertés scénaristiques et temporelles, la grande parade s'entrecroisant avec le clan des elfes perdus et l'exposition scolaire des curiosités (ça correspond grosso modo aux épisodes 3 à 5 et 7). En ce qui concerne les aventures d'Hilda et du corbeau, la réécriture est relativement importante (ce qui était déjà le cas de l'adaptation en dessin animé), on a donc une troisième version de l'histoire, de quoi renouveler l'expérience pour les lecteurs qui suivent à la fois

I have to say that I liked this less than the first volume, though it still remains a fun story.I think that it might appeal more to the younger audience or the readers who aren't familiar with this series and Hilda yet. For me, it included some of my least favourite episodes andalso having read the original comic books and watched the show, I already knew what to expect. But it's still a fun, super creative story that I would overall recommend :)

My 8 year old loves Hilda. The show, comic, novelization all trigger his imagination in the best possible way. The books may not be the highest form of literature, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that when I read them to him, he loses himself in a highly inventive world. I can't give them higher praise.

,,Hildę” autorstwa Luke’a Pearsona kojarzyłam głównie przez serial animowany Netflixa, który od dawien dawna miałam zapisany do oglądnięcia. Potem przyszły dwie książki do pracy, które oczywiście zakupiłam bo coś ciągnęło mnie do tych historii. Ale dopiero niedawno (bo w czwartek) sięgnęłam po ,,Hildę i Wielką Paradę” i z miejsca się zakochałam w tej opowieści. Następnie odpaliłam serial i przepadłam totalnie.O czym są te książki? Jak sam tytuł wskazuje o Hildzie, która jest poszukiwaczką przygó...

The book follows Hilda as she is living in the town of Trolberg. She is an adventurer and enjoys talking to trolls, animals and elves. Everyone in the town seems to be unaware of all these magical creatures (apart from trolls they think they are evil). The story focuses on Hilda trying to nurse a talking bird back to life and rescue it ready for the bird festival which is important to the town.Things I liked, lovely illustrations throughout, it was magical and a fun adventure. Things I didn't li...

Stejně “dobrá” audiokniha, jako její první díl. Melodie, výkon vypravěčky, to všechno zůstává ve stejné kvalitě.Opět se jedná o příběh pro děti, v tomto případě je to ještě více akcentováno tím, že se všichni dospělí chovají jako tupci, některé děti taky a hlavní záporák je zlý, protože je zlý (na dvou hodinách se těžko vysvětlují motivy zlounství). Chápu Hildu, proč chce raději magické než lidské kamarády. Ten materiál, který potkává v Trollbergu, bych za kamarády taky nechtěla.

I find the characters not as likeable as they are in the tv series. Hilda is particularly rude to her friends and mother. In my opinion the first book (Hilda and the Hidden people) was better because the 3 episodes that they combined didn't clash as much as this one.

This was a feast to read as there were some differences from the animated show. How she found the Raven. And more. It definitely had me delighted that there are so many Hilda stories and how they all have similarities but also differences. I love Hilda, she is a sweet adventurous girl though she may need to learn not everyone grows up in the wild. :P I did agree with her fully on the teacher and as I said before, some people shouldn't be teachers. I had lots of giggles while reading the story an...

Pretty close to the Netflix show. There are some difference like Frida and David not being friends with her after their Lindworm adventure. It did confuse me how they got pulled off the Wonderful Trolberg assignment with Hilda then were happy to help her free the Great Raven especially Frida who risked getting in trouble to help Hilda. Overall I really like reading the series so far.

Fascinating series across media but they rank from a very best graphic novel, excellent animated series and not as credible and convincing books.It is fine but has little sense of spark compared to the other media versions.
