NATIONAL BESTSELLER • When a space iguana shows up in D.J.’s backyard, it turns out it’s D.J. who might be the key to saving the universe in this hilarious New York Times bestselling graphic novel series that’s “an action-packed page-turner with heart” (Dav Pilkey, author of Dog Man).

★ “A MUST-HAVE for all children’s graphic novel collections.” —School Library Journal (starred review)

“Delightful, silly, tender, and most importantly: funny.” —Jeff Smith, bestselling author of the Bone comic series

Team Hilo is back! But somehow, a giant space iguana has landed in D.J.’s backyard. Where did she come from? And why is the whole universe out to get her? As D.J., Hilo, and Gina race through space to get their special guest back to her home planet, it quickly becomes clear that they’re in a galaxy of trouble. Because if they can’t return her in time, the whole universe may be in jeopardy! Between some very cranky space monsters, one super annoyed alien dad, and a warrior match combat challenge, the Hilo trio have their work cut out for them. Can they return their new friend back home before it’s too late? And can D.J. really drive a spaceship?

Filled with colorful illustrations and laugh-out-loud text, this action-packed graphic novel series shows that no matter where you come from, kindness, friendship, and choosing your own path are the greatest superpowers of all.

And for an outstanding gift, don’t forget to check out Hilo: The Epic Boxed Set, which includes the first 10 books in the series!
