Journey around the globe to discover how different cultures celebrate Halloween!

The time around the end of October to early November can mean many things to a child. For some, it is a chance to remember and reconnect with loved ones who have died. For others, it is a chance to be whatever their wildest imaginations can think up, or be a true representation of themselves, at least for one night. In this vibrantly illustrated book for children ages 6 to 9, Hello, Halloween! gives kids the opportunity to see Halloween from a variety of cultural perspectives and learn how other cultures have an influence on American Halloween traditions.

In this enchanting book, children investigate the meaning of Halloween around the world, including:

Samhain celebrations in Ireland and Scotland
Ognissanti in Italy
Barriletes Gigantes in Guatemala
The Qingming festival in China
Dia de Los Muertos in Mexico
The Halloween Train in Japan
Guy Fawkes Day in England
Matinstag in Germany
And more!

Hello, Halloween! creates an amazing opportunity for children around the world to connect through a beloved holiday while learning about each other’s traditions and customs. Through beautiful and diverse illustrations, it’s easy to see the influence of celebrations/cultural moments from other countries on American Halloween!
