“Solid. Expect this series to receive the same reverence as Jeff Smith’s Bone.” —Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“HILO is delightful, silly, tender, and most importantly: funny.” —Jeff Smith, bestselling author of the Bone series
“Fast paced, furiously funny, and will have kids waiting on the edge of their seats for more.”—Jeffrey Brown, bestselling author of Jedi Academy
“Diverse characters, good friends, and humorous dialogue coupled with colorful illustrations and plenty of action makes this a must-have for all children’s graphic novel collections.” —School Library Journal, starred review
“This is lively and entertaining adventure with enough risk to give it heft and plenty of solid friendship to keep readers buoyed… Lush, bright colors and a freewheeling approach to panels create an immersive environment: it’s clear that this is art, and it’s also clear that the art is running the show, not the panels or even the words. Readers will likely find it a tough wait for the next volume to come along.”—Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books, starred review
“My students are obsessed with this series. OBSESSED!”—Colby Sharp, teacher, blogger, and co-founder of Nerdy Bookclub
