Perfect Square's Hello Kitty HELLO 40 - A Celebration in 40 Stories

(So busy the past few weeks with traveling for various events etc... and the last of the traveling is done for this year.)

Been trying to find time to check out Perfect Square x Sanrio's Hello Kitty HELLO 40 - A Celebration in 40 Stories (plus one for good luck) book. As you can see from the picture above, this is a hardcover book. The book is approximately 9.25" x 9.25". There are 143 pages and are conveniently numbered starting from inside of the front cover.

Back Cover
There are 40 + 1 stories inside from numerous artists such as David Horvath, Martin Hsu, Chanmen, Debbie Huey etc... Hello Kitty doesn't talk because she doesn't have a mouth. She does show emotion through her expressions. As many of you know before Hello Kitty Con, it was revealed that Hello Kitty is not a cat. She is a little girl. This was a shock to many but with Hello Kitty Con, Exploring the Supercute World of  Hello Kitty Exhibit at JANM and of course the HELLO 40 book to help us understand and know who Hello Kitty really is.



Here's a peek inside...

"What does Hello Kitty Mean to you?" is the question that was asked to all the artists who participated in this book.

If you are fan of Hello Kitty, this is a must have in your collection! SRP is $29.99. This version is the regular version and as some of the die hard Hello Kitty fans will already know is that there were exclusive versions that were released at SDCC and Hello Kitty Con. The Hello Kitty Con exclusive has gold edged pages, a variant cover and a slip case but the content inside is the same. 

This also makes a great gift for any Hello Kitty fan. We definitely enjoyed reading the various stories of Hello Kitty from the perspective of so many artists who grew up or have been inspired by Hello Kitty.
