All in Hello Over There!
Hello Over There! feat. Julia Hune-Brown and Hayley Lowe
When she was young, Poh Poh left her home and everything she knew to travel across the ocean to North America—what they knew as Gold Mountain. The one thing she brought was her sword, but she did not use it to fight. She used it to forge a new life for her family.
Author Julia Hune-Brown and illustrator Hayley Lowe ask each other a creative question in celebration of their new book, Poh Poh’s Sword, based on the remarkable history of Julia’s grandmother, Gar Yin Hune.
Hello Over There! feat. Vikki Vansickle and Jennica Lounsbury
Deep in October County is a magical place called Spookytown, where the leaves are always bright, the air is always crisp and the pumpkins are always in their prime. Author Vikki VanSickle and illustrator Jannica Lounsbury reflect on the creation of Mother Boo: Poems from Spookytown, an autumn collection of verse that runs the gamut from silly to sweet to spine tingling!
Hello Over There! feat. Sarah Howden and Sabina Hahn
This book is brilliant mix of absurdity and beauty. It’s a story about a talking pickle, and also a story about life and death. About purpose and community. About the things we can and can’t control in life. As soon as I’d read this briny wonder, I knew it would be the perfect book to kick of this new series!
