After Sara and her friends had an exciting journey in a hot air balloon to see the country and find out how to say ‘hello’ in How Many Ways Can You Say Hello?, they are making a return trip across South Africa to see more sights and to drop off the friends, one by one. As they do so, they also need to find out how to say ‘goodbye’ to one another in all of the country’s 11 official languages. But just as Sara starts to feel sad, she discovers that ‘goodbye’ can be the start of something new, something wonderful. Join her and find this out for yourself too. This is another delightful story of rhyming verse, accompanied by charming illustrations, and a must for all young South African children. And if parents/grandparents/carers aren’t sure how to pronounce ‘goodbye’ in all 11 official languages, there is a digital link of the text, narrated by the author herself, to guide with authentic pronunciation.

When Sara and her friends return from their journey in a hot air balloon, they realise they must say goodbye. Once again they need to find out all the ways to say goodbye in South Africa's many languages. And while goodbyes can be sad, they also hold the promise and discovery of something new.
