Improvement over last book

I was worried that the glory days of HILO might be over after book 7 felt slow and repetitive. But book 8 picks up again with new ideas and a good sense of humor.

Bring back HiLo!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 10, 2022

My boys are so disappointed that HiLo is no longer the main character. It was so nice to finally find a book with a boy main character portrayed as hero in a positive light. One of them even dressed up as HiLo for Halloween and favorite character day at school. They counted down the days for all the other HiLo books to release, but now they told me they don't even want me to order the newest one. 😭
Gina should have been a spin off and have her own series-We want HiLo back in action!!

Awesome content, illustration and my son loves to read this. He likes to read these BOOKS, so I'm going to get him more Hi Lo Books. Reading is reading...less screen time, more book time. Hi Five to Hi Lo!

This is our FAVORITE series and it just keeps getting better. My 8 and 4 year old have been counting down until the release of this book and as soon as it came in the mail, we sat down and read it all together. And we all agree that this was the best one ever! We had to stop reading so many times because we were all laughing so hard. The heart is there, too. That’s what we love about these books. So much heart. They’re beautiful to look at and even more beautiful to read. There were some tears when I explained the next book won’t be until another year from now, but we all agreed it’ll be well worth the wait. They always are.

Hilo is back! And if you don't know who Hilo, Gina, DJ and all their friends are...start with book 1 for the full adventure experience. DJ and Hilo take a backseat to Gina's story in this one, with plenty of monsters, terrible jokes (that my kids love) and some new slimy villains. I highly recommend the series.

My kids are big fans of the Hilo series, and have all of the books. So they were really excited to have this latest one coming out. It did not disappoint! And we are hoping to see more books released in the near future!
