At the start of her fourth audiobook, our blue-haired heroine is selling soup with her Sparrow Scout friends at the Winter Festival fayre. Soon, however, she's tackling mischievous Yule Lads, battling mechanical bell-ringers, taking on a hungry ogre and trying to reunite a couple across the decades.

In the sixth audiobook starring our blue-haired heroine, Hilda has to rescue her mum from a two-headed troll. Along the way, there are rock-eating slugs, fearsome vikings, an airship crash and a cute baby troll.

Meet Hilda: explorer, adventurer, avid sketchbook-keeper, friend to almost every creature in the valley, and star of her very own Netflix show. Dive into this immersive multi-voice 3D audio adventure as Hilda encounters her very first troll, negotiates peace with some rather pernickety elves and reunites two lovelorn ancient giants.

In her second audio adventure, Hilda and her mum have settled into their new home and our heroine is trying to fit into this new and very different way of life. Trolberg is vast and unfamiliar, and school's not much better, but as she makes a new feathered friend, Hilda soon starts to uncover some surprising secrets which unsurprisingly lead to some wonderful, magical adventures.

In this fifth audiobook, funny things are happening at sea so Hilda packs her adventuring satchel and sets sail to find out why ships keep disappearing near Cauldron Island. Will she get to the bottom of the mystery or end up at the bottom of the ocean? Meanwhile, back on land, an old acquaintance has taken over a windmill and promised she's turned over a new leaf, but can she be trusted?

In her third audio outing, Hilda has been newly initiated into the Sparrow Scouts and now she's ready to earn some badges, and perhaps even make some human friends. Yet a dark, menacing creature is threatening Trolberg, and only our blue-haired heroine can get to the bottom of what it wants.
