Hilda books in order

Ages 7–11 · about grade 2 comic · still going

There are 6 Hilda books. Start with Hilda and the Troll (2010) and read them in number order. The newest is book 6, Hilda and the Mountain King (2019). Flying Eye Books' page for the sixth book prints two ranges, 5 to 7 and 7 to 11; we use 7 to 11 for the six main books and 5 to 7 for Hilda and Twig.

What reading it is like: Rich, detailed pictures with a little text on each page; the story is easy to follow and the wording is plain.

What's next for Hilda

  • Hilda and Twig: A younger prequel set of graphic novels by Luke Pearson, for ages 5 to 7 on Flying Eye's page: Hide from the Rain (2024) and Wake the Ice Man (November 2025).
  • Hilda: The Wilderness Stories: A hardcover bind-up of earlier Hilda comics, not a new story.
  • The Netflix tie-in novels: Illustrated chapter books by Stephen Davies based on the animated show; they are prose, not graphic novels, and aren't part of the numbered list.

Do you have to read Hilda in order?

Read the six main books in number order if you can. Each one is a separate adventure, so a child can start with any of them, but characters and places come back from book to book. Luke Pearson has called the sixth the last of the original series. The two Hilda and Twig books are a separate, younger, prequel set and can be read before or after.

What age is Hilda for?

Seven to eleven is the publisher's age for the main books, not a reading level. Each book has quiet scenes and strange, beautiful places, so the pace is gentler than a joke-a-page comic. Peabody's own lists put it at about 7 to 11. We don't print reading-level scores: they belong to the companies that make them.

What's it like inside Hilda?

  • Words: Some words on a page.
  • Panels: About 4 to 6 panels a page.
  • Colour: Full colour.
  • Which way: Left to right, like most books.
  • Length: Book 1 has 40 pages (a big, thin book).
  • Feels: Exciting, a little scary.

About book 1. The page count is from flyingeyebooks.com; the rest is Peabody's own note, never a score.
