A jet-setting gator and hippo visit seven different countries and teach readers how to say hello and goodbye in various languages ("He says 'Bonjour! in France….He says 'Konichiwa' in Japan.") Accompanying each new word is a simple phonetic spelling. Librarians who sing hello and goodbye songs in storytime will be inspired to add a bit of international flavor with these colorful and fun offerings.—Kiera Parrott, School Library Journal
