Luke Pearson (author)Published: 01/07/2017
A bravura fusion of Scandinavian folk tale and twenty- first- century comic art, the Hilda books are a technicolour treat for young and old alike. Mischievous spirits afflict Hilda’s homestead in this typically spirited romp from the incandescent imagination of Luke Pearson.
The fourth in Luke Pearson's acclaimed series of magical adventures starring Hilda, our favorite blue-haired heroine--now in paperback!
Hilda stumbles upon Tontu, a lost house spirit. Plunged into the secret world of the Nisse, Hilda discovers hidden passages that only the house spirits can navigate--and something has been ransacking them all!
