Half a Giraffe?

by Jodie Parachini

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.

[Robin · Rating 2 out of 5]

Saccharine. Meh. Ages 3-5.

[N_schiele · Rating 4 out of 5]

Great rhyming, adorable illustrations and excellent way to celebrate what makes us all unique, no matter all we seek as weaknesses or flaws.

[Bethe · Rating 3 out of 5]

Rhyming text tells story of a young giraffe wanting to be bigger. A little bit saccharine in the message of being content with yourself, cute illustrations.

[Danielle Hammelef · Rating 3 out of 5]

A universal message for readers with fun illustrations.
