Himalayas, travels back in time, and discovers that sometimes, the best
place to get away from it all is between the pages of a good book.
HELLO KITTY: DELICIOUS!
Hello
Kitty is serving up some extra special treats! What's on the menu?
Something sweet, something spicy, and a pie that's out of this world!
Plus, Dear Daniel's making dinner, but...you might want to make other
plans. And Hello Kitty makes a new friend with a HUGE appetite!
HELLO KITTY: SURPRISE!
Expect
the unexpected! A day at the beach is more than just fun in the sun. A
mysterious egg holds a tiny secret. Mama and Papa have a few secrets of
their own. And a quiet afternoon with a good book is more enchanting
than Hello Kitty ever could have imagined!
HELLO KITTY: JUST IMAGINE…

Kitty and her friends are letting their imaginations run wild—dreaming
up rainy day adventures, inventing amazing machines and solving problems
in the most inventive ways. When creativity and friendship combine, the
possibilities are endless!

all around, and Hello Kitty and her friends know exactly where to find
it!

Let
the good times roll! It's time for beach parties, dance contests,
