Hello, Hello

Beautiful book to accompany hello songs. Good for the beginning of the school year when students are getting to know each other.

Terrific for Pre-schoolers

I was first introduced to this book through our local library with my three year old. However, as a Pre-K teacher, I soon saw the value of it to use in my lessons with my 4 year olds. It is an awesome book to talk about friendships and the many ways there are to say hello. I have also used it as a way to talk about manners and what is appropriate for people, and what might be appropriate for animals and thd difference. The book also provides a way to talk about different animals and where they live. It's beautiful illustrations give a glimps of the animals natural habitat, without being overwhelming for young learners. It is also an awesome book for children who are naturally drawn to animals. It can be a book just for fun, or also a learning tool. If you purchase it, you won't be sorry. We've read it and re-read it numurous times. Enjoy!!

Wonderful

My 4 year old LOVES this book. She has it memorized and she wants to do each of the animal greetings with me every night. It has also made her more curious about animals, animal families, etc.

Greetings from the Animal Kingdom.....

"When two lions meet, How do they say hello?" Turn the page of Miriam Schlein's fun and imformative picture book and find out. "They rub their foreheads together, and make a humming noice... like this...HMMMM... That's how two lions say hello. Mmmmmm. HELLO." Now, see how polar bears, chimpanzees, wolves, and beavers, zebras, penquins, and elephants greet each other when they meet..... Ms Schlein's simple explanations are engaging and creative, and complemented by illustrator, Daniel Kirk's bold and evocative artwork. Together word and art offer easily understood animal behaviors, and then relate them back to humans. "How do you say hello? With a smile? With a wave? With a shake of the hand? With a bow? With a hug? With a kiss? HELLO!" Perfect as a read aloud at story time, or for use with a unit about animals, Hello, Hello is a preschool crowd pleaser, and early non-fiction at its very best.
