It's difficult to be separated from those we love, and sometimes it's
hard to feel connected when we can't be together in person.
This board book helps fill that need to connect, with a simple message:
I'm still here, even though I'm not right there beside you. A series of
scenarios depicts a narrator employing various forms of
communication—from video calls and letters to dolphin-messengers and
skywriting—to say a simple "hello" to someone far away.
Exploring the idea of connecting over distance, whether it's through a
pane of glass or across a continent, this book delivers its earnest
message in a lighthearted way, engaging children's imaginations in
thinking of delightful new ways to say "hello." The book will remind
them that they are loved by those they can't always see. Instead of
emphasizing what we can't do when we're apart, this book takes a
positive view and makes a game out of finding new ways we can
communicate.
Reassuring and imaginative, this board book fills a growing need to
reach out and connect with one another.
Hello from Here features:
- Timely Topic: Current events have made distanced greetings
a near-universal fact of life
- Timeless Appeal: There are always circumstances that
separate loved ones, and there is always a need for books that help
bridge that separation
- Encourages Creativity: Imaginative means of communication
are mixed with more typical methods, engaging children in the story and
inviting them to add their own ideas on how to stay connected

story is set in the Islamic Golden Age when Baghdad was the largest
and most dazzling city in the world. Perfect for fans of thrilling
adventure. Thirteen-year-old Jabir is hoping to save his family
from being made homeless by finding work in Baghdad. Famished after

orders of the grand caliph Harun al Rashid himself. In return Jabir
must carve twelve golden horsemen, a gift from the caliph to the
emperor Charlemagne. But someone is determined to stop Jabir from

achieve his aim. Can Jabir and his friend Yasmina finish the
horsemen or will Jabir be sent back to prison? Ideal for readers

great characters and insight into Islamic civilisation and the
historic culture of the Middle East circa AD 900, a period which is
