“Children deserve to see the rich diversity of their lives and the
world in which they live reflected in the books around
them.” — Cooperative Children’s Book Center, University of
Wisconsin-Madison
“A lovely portrait of kindness without borders.” —Publishers
Weekly
"This multilingual board book greets children in eight languages as
it makes its way around the globe over the course of a day. Airy
lines, a patchwork of patterns, and splashy colors create a mood of
carefree energy in each city: 'Bom dia, mundo (Good morning,
world),' offers a Brazilian baby as it crawls across a sandy Rio
beach, the statue of Christ the Redeemer towering over the
landscape in the distance. In Egypt, a woman wearing a Cairo
T-shirt and hijab holds up her daughter, as though readers are a
guest in their home: 'Marhabaan "asdiqa". (Hello, friends).'
Although the languages aren’t identified, only the cities, it’s a
lovely portrait of kindness without borders. Up to age 5."
—Publishers Weekly
"Babies-PreS-Babies and their families greet neighbors and friends
throughout the day in New York, Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro,
London, Paris, Cape Town, Cairo, Beijing, and Tokyo. The final
spread has a papa bidding his baby "Nite nite!" in San Francisco.
Fun digital collage landscapes grace each spread along with the
standard greetings (and translations). A fun way to introduce
different parts of the world and the universality of baby love
around the globe." —School Library Journal
"A cheery board book to reinforce the oneness of babykind." —Kirkus
Reviews
"Good for babies, but can also be very educational for older
toddlers. And like all good bedtime books, it ends with a baby
sleeping! —My Sweet Sleeper
