A fun and exciting mystery!
'Hilda and the Black Hound' is also the first appearance of the Sparrow Scouts, and of David and Frida, who are not nearly as prominent in the comics as they are in the cartoon adaptation. Hilda barely has any human friends yet (and we know absolutely nothing of her school life). But her place in the Sparrow Scouts, and her trying to please her mum with the number of badges she earns, and failing miserably, are a significant focus in the story; alongside the foreboding giant black hound, and the Nisse, and their connection.But things are just starting to be portentous. Get ready for the next instalment, 'Hilda and the Stone Forest'.
Final Score: 4.5/5
