German review of Hallo! from Yanthara
“… also nice for older children, as the 10 kindnesses and the theme of escape also invite conversation.”
“… also nice for older children, as the 10 kindnesses and the theme of escape also invite conversation.”
“Without lecturing or pointing fingers, and with very little text, Hollis Kurman describes how the family arrives in the new country and meets lovely people along the way.”
“Among other things, it shows us how grateful we should be for our lives, since we receive more than ten kindnesses every day. Absolutely recommended reading.”
“I like the idea of counting kindnesses and it offers a lot to talk about beyond counting.”
“Humanity can hardly be put into words. It appears when we act, stand up for others. Hallo! shows what small gestures can mean for people on the run: the feeling of belonging and the hope for a better future.”
“Recommended picture book on the subject of migration!”
“Ten million children around the world are on the run, this book is dedicated to all those who treat them with humanity.”
“Wonderfully simple and wonderfully important.”
“Welcoming people in a friendly way can be so easy – that is the simple message of Hallo! Simple, but with far reaching impact.”
“A picture book that touches and belongs in every kindergarten.”
