STEVE PARISH
As a child, Steve Parish was fascinated with animals. As an adult, he has
devoted his career to photographing them, and through publishing has
promoted an informed awareness of Australia’s unique and varied wildlife.
With each photograph, Steve aims to capture a little of the character of the
animal, giving us a sense of being immersed in the animal’s environment.
Steve has a passion for teaching children about nature. What better way is
there to develop this appreciation than through the joy of reading?
KERRY KITZELMAN
School teacher, university lecturer, and author, Kerry Kitzelman
understands the importance of reading to children. It rewards the child
in the early years of schooling and prepares a foundation for reading
enjoyment later. As a parent, Kerry knows that reading together is a
pleasure for both parent and child and enriches this special relationship.
Read to your child at every opportunity. They love it!

ABOUT SAY “HELLO” BOOKS
Featuring some of Australia’s cutest animals, this series is
an enchanting way to introduce children to books. A child’s
perception is very different to an adult’s perception. Children
don’t automatically know how to progress through a book — a
skill that is a precursor to learning to read.
Each book in the Say “Hello” series not only acquaints children
with captivating Australian animals, but also promotes a specific
set of skills to help prepare children for reading. Say “Hello” to
an Aussie icon and start your child on the road to a lifetime of
reading pleasure.
