"For shy children, or anyone apprehensive when navigating new situations, this picture book about missed opportunities to greet one another is a must. Through her masterly use of evasive language and negative space, Kim whimsically exhorts us to connect." New York TImes


Hello! It seems so easy to say, but what happens if you miss the chance to greet someone and then keep seeing that same person again and again.


In this light-hearted, funny tale, Korean author Sung Mi Kim tells a story of increasingly awkward encounters between Mr. Wolf and Little Fox and shows readers how saying hello right from the beginning could have made all the difference.



"This simple Korean import is told primarily through the characters’ dialogue and thoughts, making it a perfect choice for dramatic read-alouds and role-playing to help children empathize with others and polish their social graces." Kirkus Reviews

"This thoughtful and funny title is sure to become a firm favourite." Children's Book Council of Australia Reading Time


"...a powerful reminder that often we misinterpret situations and actions, and this can lead to misunderstandings and estrangement. The detailed illustrations in this story are cleverly drawn. The use of black and white outlines with bold tones for the two main characters will appeal to readers of all ages." ReadPlus
