This is a cute book that has countries that hello Kitty is visiting. It says hello in that country's language and has pictures of things that the country is known for. Very cute for young world travelers.

Hello Kitty travels around the globe visiting several famous cities. On each country's spread, a globe with the country highlighted appears, typical food, famous locations, cultural artifacts and common animals are identified and the pages are headed by a greeting in the local language. The back of the book features pronunciation guides for all the vocabulary introduced.

Very little plot to the story, but it provides a good introduction to the cultures of China, India, France, Brazil, Kenya, USA, Mexico, Japan, Russia, and Australia for little ones. Use this to get little ones interested in the wider world.

Really cute little book that has Hello Kitty going around the world. Each page features a different country with a variety of landmarks and/or common everyday items labeled with their names in the language of that country. My mother bought this for me because I like Hello Kitty, so this is a keeper for me.

Saya membeli buku ini sebagai pelengkap belajar geografi untuk anak saya, Luna (3). Kitty menyapa pembaca dengan bahasa masing-masing daerah yang dikunjungi, menunjukkan kekhasan masing-masing daerah. Gambarnya memang kartun banget, tapi lumayan menghibur, kok.

I like Hello Kitty. I like her as much as I like to think that me liking her is the only femme thing about me. In this book, I learned that there are puffins in Ireland. So now, I have to go visit my friend who lives there.
