From author Andrea Denish and illustrator Blue Bean comes a touching story about new siblings, greetings, languages, and love.
A young child searches for the best way to welcome a new baby to their family as they ask, ‘A special day. A special place. How will you greet a special face?’ With rhyming text, heartwarming art, and educational facts about cultures and customs around the world, The Way We Say Hello takes you as far as Tibet and as near as your front yard as you learn greeting after greeting.
Along the way, you’ll also discover how to welcome the world into your heart in different languages, gestures, and places. You can say ‘namaste, ‘ ‘howdy, ‘ or ‘annyeong.’ You can use traditional greetings like the Māori hongi or European cheek kisses. You can use sign language to greet those who are hard of hearing, or send a card to someone far away.
Perfect for new big siblings, baby showers, and kids curious about different cultures and languages. There are so many ways to greet someone new, no matter where they’re from or what language they speak—so how will YOU say hello?
