A brand-new adventure featuring our favourite blue-haired heroine Hilda, and her trusty deerfox companion Twig.

Sheltering in a mysterious mound in the earth, Twig quickly realises that trouble is afoot, and that his best blue-haired friend is in danger. Unfortunately, he’s never really thought of himself as the brave one, but it looks like he’s going to have to step up and save Hilda from a whole load of big, scaly trouble!

Magical and cute for Hilda fans!”A worthy addition to the Hilda series, this is a magical story about treasure, realising what’s important and Twig being brave. Cute and characterful with an eye-catching and tactile front cover.

Waterstones Bookseller Review

Like the best folk tales, Hilda and Twig is imaginative and captivating, as cosy as it is strange and as spooky as it is heartfelt.

Jamie Littler, author of Frostheart

Hilda and Twig Hide from the Rain is like a cozy fireplace, a soft blanket, and a delicious bowl of soup all rolled up into one beautiful, exciting, and heartwarming graphic novel. What Luke Pearson does with comics is pure magic!
