Hilo: Out-Of-This-World Boxed Set: The Boy Who Crashed to Earth / Saving the Whole Wide World / the Great Big Boom

Good quality, arrived promptly and my son loved it

We live this books, but I did not realise it’s only 3 of the 5 books, so not really value for money as we already had part 1

Love the booky

My 6 year old loves these Hilo books. He had book 4 already and read it over and over and over and over. Finally got him this book 1-3 set and he was so happy to open it. He sat down in the middle of the room to immediately dive in and didnt move (except for page turning) for a solid hour or so (however long it took him to read all 3 back to back). Then he took them to his room to read them again and bookmark his favorite pages. Id say the story is a little advanced for a 6 year old (I havent read every page of every book, but nothing seems inappropriate, and I like that both boys and girls are positive main characters). The artwork and action are great and keep his interest soooo well. He has no trouble reading them on his own and he loves them.

My son (8) loves these books. He's reread the entire box set more times then I can count. We will be buying him more in this series.

Seamus (6): "It's the best book ever. And it has an awesome ending." Jack (7): "Impressive. Nice work on the funny bits. I really liked it." Potty humor aside, this is a great intro to comic books. Big action, goofy sense of humor. Manages to be both in-pocket for parents content-wise, and wildly out-of-pocket for a kids' comic in terms of sheer visual spectacle and the scope of the storytelling. Big win as far as we're concerned.

Good humour. Fun art. All we need is a box set for the next few!
