Rhyming text and beautifully illustrated community scenes from around the world invite readers ages 4 to 8 to greet everyone with God’s love―one hello at a time.
“Hola!” “Jambo!” “Ni hao!” God gives us many ways to say hello and many neighbors to meet! This second book in the God Everywhere series shows families how simple and joyful it is to reach out to someone new. Each thoughtfully crafted page from author-illustrator and missionary Sarah Nunnally calls us to step into the lives of people who might look different from us, reminding us that “loving your neighbor is a lifelong journey … and hello is a simple start.”
Every Neighbor includes …
Ways to say hello in twelve languages.
Fun cultural facts about other countries―from India to Denmark to Lebanon.
Glimpses of how children around the world play, learn, and grow.

I thought that this was such a lovely book to read!
The story was well written and it was easy to read and understand. The illustrations in the book were just wonderful, they were nice, bright and colourful and they brought the story to life too.
My daughter enjoyed the book and I loved the message that comes through in the story and I loved that we could learn to say "hello" in the different languages around the world - that was a really nice tough and made the book even more enjoyable.
It is 5 stars from me for this one - very highly recommended!
Fantastic story of sharing God’s love with one simple word, Hello. Great illustrations. This book takes us to different countries and the word for hello there. There is also a brief fact about life in that country. Really enjoyed this book. Highly recommend,
I was blessed with an ARC. Thank you, NetGalley. The opinions expressed are my own and unbiased.

Every Neighbor by Sarah Nunnally
This is a cute and colorful book about people from all countries and how they say hello.
It also has the sounding out of the words included after the little notation on the country in rhyme.
I like the way the author included buildings and landscapes in the illustrations.
This is a wonderful book to teach children the way to say hello in different languages or to recognize if someone says hello to them in their native language.
This is a good book for the classroom reading time and library.
I LOVED this book. Anything that will teach children about other countries and cultures has me in. The illustration and pictures were amazing and the overall literacy was great. Very eye catching and really had me at every word.

"Every Neighbor: Greeting Everyone With God's Love" is a beautiful book to showcase Jesus' teaching to " love our neighbor" and that all of God's children around the world are our neighbors.
Nunnally shows that saying "Hello!" is a great way to start. Through her descriptive text and beautiful illustrations, the reader learns about neighbors around the world, from how to say "Hello" in their language to a little bit about their culture.
The colorful and delightful illustrations, along with the lyrical text, will captivate young children (4-8) ... and their adults will enjoy learning along with them!. This would a fun and beneficial read in the home, schools and churches.
Thank you to NetGalley and David Cook Publishing for the Advance Read.
Thank you David Cook and NetGalley for this gifted digital copy.
Every Neighbor: Greeting Everyone With God’s Love is a warm and gentle children’s book that teaches kindness, inclusion, and treating everyone with love, just like Jesus. Through simple language and cheerful illustrations, it shows how small moments; like saying hello, sharing a smile, or helping a friend can spread God’s love in everyday life. It’s a sweet, encouraging story that highlights the importance of community and compassion, making it a great reminder for little readers that they can brighten someone’s day just by being kind.
This was much needed in today’s political climate where there seems to be a divide among Christian’s and the teachings of Jesus.

Every Neighbor by Sarah Nunnally is a rhyming book for children ages 4-8. The book takes the reader and child to different countries around the world teaching them how to say hello in that country’s language, how to pronounce it and teaches them alittle about what you’ll find in that country.
The book teaches the child that all it takes to get to know your neighbor is a simple hello especially a neighbor that may look, sound, dress different from them. It teaches kindness, inclusion and recognition by simply saying hello.
Thank you #netgalley for the ARC
