A rollicking rhyming text shows how a baby giraffe learns, with a little help from her friends, to be true to herself. All giraffes, even baby Gisele, know that the juiciest leaves are on the tops of the trees. But how does she reach them? No matter how she stretches or twists, those tasty leaves are just too high. A strong story with a light touch, and colorful art with extra touches of humor, appeals to both children and adults.

The giraffe is that tallest animal alive today. A male giraffe can grow to be over 18 feet (5.5 metres) tall. That's taller than a two-story house! Giraffes look a bit like a horse with a stretched out neck and stretched out legs. They have long skinny legs and a very long neck. Their front legs are longer than their back legs. That is why their backs slope down toward their rump. Find out more about this wonderful animal and learn the answers to these questions: How thick is a giraffe’s skin? How many bones does a giraffe have in their neck? How big is a giraffe’s heart? What is different between the way a male giraffe eats and the way a female giraffe eats? What is strange about the way a giraffe walks? And many more! Learn what a giraffe looks like, where it lives, what it eats, what eats it, how babies are born, and other fun facts.
