Hilo: Gina The Girl Who Broke the World




Hilo is back! The action-packed, laugh-out-loud graphic novel series returns with an epic new story arc starring Hilo's friend Gina. Perfect for fans of Wimpy Kid and Bunny Vs Monkey aged 8–12.

Hundreds of years ago, magic disappeared from Earth. At least, it had ... until now.

When giant magical beings begin appearing on Earth, it's up to Gina, Hilo and DJ to save the day. But not because Hilo's from space. Nope! Because Gina can see these magical beings – and better yet, she can even do magic herself! But as powerful as magic can be, it can also be dangerous, especially when the whole world's in jeopardy!

The seventh book in the action-packed, laugh-out loud bestselling graphic novel series perfect for young readers aged 8–12.
