We dive into Hilo: The Boy Who Crashed to Earth, the bestselling middle grade graphic series by Judd Winick.
Nine-year-old D.J. doesn’t consider himself to be good at anything. He’s not good at tennis like his older brother or a prodigy like his younger sister. In fact, the thing that he was best at was being friends with Gina. Unfortunately, Gina moves away and D.J. is left on his own. Until one day, there’s a BOOM! CLANG! CRASH! and Hilo falls from the sky. Hilo doesn’t know where he came from or how he ended up on planet Earth. Readers will love this amusing story of friendship.
Recommended for readers aged 9-12*. Plus, stick around after the discussion for a fun craft activity inspired by the book.
