Customer Reviews

Great read a loud for toddlers too!

I orginally purchased this book while I was teaching elementary school and my students enjoyed it. But now I am a SAHM and it is one of my 2-year-old daughter's favorite read-a-louds. She can almost all 42 of the different languages and even more amazingly remembers which kid's picture goes with which language. I definitely recommend this book for kids and adults of all ages!

Fun and simple

Hello world does just what it says; the book contains multiple ways to say hello in various languages from around the world. Each greeting has an illustration of a child waving to the reader. I teach 7th grade World History, and I took the book apart and made a hello wall in my classroom. This book is fun for my students because they like saying hello in different languages to me when they enter into my classroom. I liked this book as it was a different way for my students to learn a little bit about the multitude of cultures around the world. Overall, this is a great teaching resource for world cultures.

Great book for classrooms!

I bought this book to use to write greetings for my morning messages. It was worth it! It has "hello" in many different languages, accompanied by a pronunciation for each one, the language that it comes from, and a full page drawing of a child that represents that country. My class loves the full color pictures and interesting ways to say, "Hello!"
