Knowing how to say hello is one of the most important life skills, and this lively, inclusive board book demonstrates lots of different ways to do it, so that however confident they are, or not, little children will find a method that suits. We see people bumping elbows, saying hello with a wave, a kiss, a cuddle, even a dance.
Offering a snack can be a way to say hello, or you can do it with a high five. If you need to do it from a safe place (behind your parents), well that’s OK too. The tone is relaxed and positive, and the busy scenes illustrated are lovely to look at, full of detail and unwritten stories. A welcome addition to any small child’s book collection.
From a high five to a fist bump, from a wave to a kiss, there are so many wonderful ways to say hello. This bright and quirky board book teaches little learners the importance of communication, and how there're so many different ways to make our friends feel welcome and included.

From sharing a smile to giving a hug, Sophie Beer explores physical and verbal forms of communication and how we can say hello in ways which don't necessarily include physical contact. Vibrant and welcoming illustrations introduce the topic of communication in a positive and enjoyable way.
Sophie Beer is an illustrator/author. She lives in the sunniest part of Australia yet hisses like an angry vampire at the sun, which is unfortunate when she's in public. As a kid, Sophie was obsessed with making books, and, equally, with drawing covers for the books she made. Now, she gets to do those things for real and is quite in stunned disbelief at her luck.
Sophie is a lover of words and pictures, bees, indoor plants, good charity shop finds, frozen banana, native Australian flowers, and making books for kids. She creates little worlds on a page from a rickety table in her home, coexisting with her two cats and a greyhound, her husband who looks a bit like a greyhound, her two children, two outrageously pampered cats, and the wild birds she feeds daily.
