Hello, Goodbye Around the World

Hello, Goodbye, Around the World is a richly illustrated journey across the globe that introduces children to countries, cultures, and languages through the simple acts of saying hello and goodbye.

Each spread features a child from a different country greeting the world in the daytime and saying goodbye in the evening. As readers travel from place to place, they explore iconic landmarks, traditional foods, and everyday life, gaining a deeper understanding of how children live in different parts of the world.

Along the way, readers are introduced to greetings in multiple languages, including original scripts, diacritics, and phonetic pronunciations, encouraging curiosity about language, communication, and global diversity.

A built-in audio feature allows children and caregivers to hear each greeting spoken aloud, supporting pronunciation and helping bring each language to life.

With warm, painterly illustrations and a calm, welcoming tone, this book celebrates diversity, connection, and shared humanity across cultures.

Perfect for ages 7-11 (Primary Years 3-6), this book is ideal for classrooms, libraries, and families, offering an engaging introduction to geography, language, and cultural awareness.
